I bought this Stream Air from Bryan last winter and have only played with it in the pool. After reading some of the info on the web, I was afraid it wouldn't breathe very well on a full tank, but to my surprise, this thing breathes great. It's certainly smoother at lower pressure, but even at 2600, it was very nice breathing.
Since I didn't want to sling a pony bottle, I decided to dive my only wetsuit, which a shorty I use in the pool for training. The water was 55, so it was comfortable. (Today, the air was a little cooler, so I dove my Phoenix and used the drysuit.... I'm a big sissy, I know...)
This is my 'shorty' smile!! Ha Ha
I was diving to look for a pair of eye glasses that a friend dropped in the harbor. I found the glasses and also went up and down a few times to find critters for the kids. The reg breathed great no matter what position I was in, or how hard I was breathing. And the sounds..... You can certainly hear the venture!
I owe my wife thanks for taking the photos, I'll try to get some underwater shots the next time I use the Stream Air.
And Thank You Bryan, for another great regulator.
