Chris, the problem is not with Poseidon regs. it's with Poseidon the company. They have no dealer support and almost no warranty.
Oceanic on the other hand has great support, but seems to change reg. design about every two years.
Give me a ScubaPro or an Atomic any day, they have great support and are not changing everything every six months, and breath sweet no matter what the depth.
Also I'm looking a a flow rate test from the Navy, done in 1989, maybe I'm reading it wrong, but it seems to shows that the Mark 10 and the Poseidon, 1st stages have almost the same flow rate.
