If you are interested in streamlining yourself in the water, making your gear easier to pack and eliminating confusion in an out of air situation then Leisure Pro has an Octo for you! The Blue Reef Octo + Inflator can do it all. You will drop the standard Octo from your regulator setup and combine it with your BC power inflator eliminating a hose and reducing clutter. The Octo + Inflator will attach to any standard 1" BC corrugated hose and if there is an out of air emergency you will know right where to look because your Octo is on the power inflator you have been using for the whole dive. Give it a try, Simplify!

As with other reviewers, the unit was leaking air. I communicated with LP tech support, and they told me how to adjust the resistance. Use a 3/16 inch allen key and insert it through the male quick disconnect. Use the long arm of the allen key, since the adjustment screw is recessed way inside. I then turned the allen key for zero air flow and then adjusted the flow upwards until I reached a point where it was fairly easy to breath, but more importantly did not exhibit air leak any more. There was no need to disassemble the unit. I think there is no defect in the product; it just may need an adjustment. I hope this helps those who have complained about it leaking air. Good product, good price. LP tech support very good, thanks

don't bother with this

I bought this as a backup octo - it works okay but not great - you have to tilt your head at an uncomfortable angle to use it, and it breathes very wet. Good for an emergency situation only.

Comments about Blue Reef Octo + Inflator with inflator hose:

Good idea. Havent had the opportunity to use yet because the connection to the manual inflator hose is too large, so I have to find a larger diameter hose that will still fit the connection at the bladder.

        Comments about Blue Reef Octo + Inflator with inflator hose:

        Did not free flow once in a week of diving. the hose is a bit long and caused tension on the fill tube. At the end of one dive I found that my fill tube had come loose (I rarely use air in my wing so I did not notice until I surfaced. Since I was near the boat is was no big deal but I will deal with the hose length for next time. Also the LP hose has a huge weight on it, I guess to get it to stay down, so you really are not saving any weight overall but I do like having one less hose. It does breath well enough for a back up.
