Brand: Aqualung

Located in: Essential Equipment, Regulators

When you dive, you head to depths to view sea life, the environment, and wrecks, right? How often have you seen more bubbles than fish while underwater? The Kronos regulator offers a brilliant Side-X (patent pending) exhaust system that moves the bubbles to the side of your field of vision instead of in front of your face, allowing you to actually see the sea, lake, or river's offerings. Another "why didn't they think of that before" feature of the Kronos is the exhaust design; as you exhale, your warm breath flows over the second stage's valves, which warms the valve and allows it to resist freezing.

The first stage has an auto-balanced diaphragm and features the Auto-Closure Device (ACD), which keeps water out of the first stage and protects it from corrosion. The venturi control system and integrated Dual Cam controller give you complete control over air flow and sensitivity.

Comments about Aqualung AquaLung Kronos Supreme Regulator:

I bought this unit when I got certified. In three years it has never let me down. Bubbles stay out of your face and ears. Even on drift dive the bubbles are carried away to give you a clear field of view.

Appearance Not Great - Hoping for Better

Comments about Aqualung AquaLung Kronos Supreme Regulator:

I just received my regulator and have not yet put it into use. However, initial impressions of the purchase were less than stellar. The plastic on the first stage had chunks missing out of it and the metal was scratched in places. The entire regulator was very dusty; as if it had been sitting on a shelf for a year (or more).

I am truly hoping that my first time out (in about two weeks time) with the regulator will clear a lot of these negative initial impressions -- which I readily admit are cosmetic. I will update my comments once I have a chance to try out the regulator.

One last thing, the "Features" section says "spare mouthpiece" is included, but none came with the regulator. Not a major disappointment, but just some more bad mojo.

Comments about Aqualung AquaLung Kronos Supreme Regulator:

Before to buy my first regulator I used several in order to find the best one and of course I search a lot of information on internet. There are a lot of great regulators but I just love this one. You can breathe easily, fits perfect in your mouth, awesome 100% visibility. I highly recommend this product. Try to use scuba equipment before buying. Aqualung offers technical support around the world.

Sent it back

By Dave

from Chicago IL on 9/23/2007

Pros:

Adjustable, Comfortable, Nitrox Compatible

Cons:

Poor Design

Describe Yourself:

Advanced Diver, Recreational Diver

Bottom Line:

No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Comments about Aqualung AquaLung Kronos Supreme Regulator:

Seemed like a good reg but as soon as I connected the octo, gauges and LP hose for BCD I realized I had to send it back. The layout of the LP and HP ports on the 1st stage make it nearly impossible to have any kind of "hose management". In best of configurations you still have 4 hoses each at 90deg from each other. If this is not an issue for you, disregard this review... this was my only issue and I never even got the reg wet. I live in Chicago, so I go to the Caribbean to dive, so "packability" is critical for me. I am plan to trade it in for a Legend LX.

Comments about Aqualung AquaLung Kronos Supreme Regulator:

Very easy to breath with. Weird at the begining(you miss the bubbles = better visibility). I'm on the path to tech diver and i bought this one for comfort while i'm training; I stay more focused underwater, relaxing when solving problems underwater since there are no bubbles on your face. Good for underwater Photo/video. Warmest dive=90 degrees; Coldest dive=55 degrees in caverns. It's a great reg.
