Mares Rover, great set at a great price

By DAVID M.

Wanted something easy to use and still worked well. This fit the bill and the price was great. Shipping was quick also. When I am ready to upgrade I will be looking here again. Thanks

 

Ok up to now

Used for 10 dives since purchase last month. Breathes dry and easy.

The new Rover 2S regulator is an excellent choice for intensive rental use in the Diving Centers and for all divers who want reliability! The new R2S first stage is the evolution of the piston regulator. The first stage is made of marine grade brass with a sandblasted finish for increase scratch resistance. The protection cover of the first stage is designed to allow the installation of an optional RFID chip for rental use managed by dedicated PC software.

The lightweight compact and sturdy non-balanced first stage piston design with its Dynamic Flow Control (DFC) system minimizes the intermediate pressure drop during inhalation, making it possible to use a simpler and more reliable second stage regulator further increasing reliability. The DFC does not require any type of manual adjustment for the second stage due to the consistency of the stable air flow, even under extreme conditions. Regulator is nitrox ready out-of-the-box.

The mid-sized techno-polymer second stage regulator with its simple, yet reliable downstream demand valve design has a Fluid Dynamic Deflector. This innovative deflector, developed after in-depth studies and tests of fluid dynamics, is engineered to receive and properly direct the airflow from the bypass tube to the mouthpiece. Combined with the Vortex Assisted Design (VAD) system that creates a swirling vortex with a low-pressure area in the center of the regulator that keeps the diagram down during inhalation, for very sensitive and easy breathing at all depths.

Mares patented mesh grid design of the second stage cover reduces the pressure of water flowing onto the second stage diaphragm and minimizes free-flow. Even in strong currents it eliminates the need for a knob to de-tune (make it harder to breathe) your air delivery system to stop the un-wanted free-flow: advanced technology through basic physics. This simple and reliable design makes for easy and reduced maintenance. First stage has one high pressure port and four low pressure ports. Rover 2S has a 3/8" threaded 31.5" (80cm) hose, and weighs 34.82 oz. (987 g).

This product can only be shipped to U.S. addresses.

Questions & Answers

Questions about this item:

Shopper  Is this regulator balanced or unbalanced?
ROSS G  Balanced
CHARLES H  unbalanced-most (maybe all) of the mares second stages are unbalanced. We own four. My personal was purchased in 1983 and is still in use. My wife has had hers since 2000 and the two new ones (Rover 2)are for my children. All perform great and breath easy. All of our diving is non technical in easy conditions.
MIYUKI S  This is an unbalanced piston regulator.
Shopper  Can I use this reg in cold water?
GREG J  I use mine in Monterey, CA which is pretty cold and do not have any problems.
TIMOTHY B  Any regulator has the possibility of free-flow in clod water. However, I have used the Rover 2S to about 45 degrees with no problem. Will it (or any other regulator) always handle cold water - probably not but this is a great work horse of a reg.
WARREN T  I live in Ogden Utah, we have alot of mountain lakes up here. I've used this Reg in water between 40-60F degrees without any issues. It does seem to have a break in period of a couple dives but I love mine. Great buy for the money.
MIYUKI S  You can yes (cold but not ice), but for better performance in cold water, I would recommend something in the Mares Abyss line.
WILLIAM R  Yes as long as your not ice diving.
ANDRE B  It can be used in cold weather however I prefer using adjustable regs in colder weather. I have used this with no problems over the past year . For the money it is a great reg . Diving in cold weather Ohio and warm weather Florida / Puerto Rico flawlessly
Shopper  Can i use this reg with NITROX?
Monica s  Up to 40% out of the box, yes.
Shopper  What the difference between Mares Rover 2 Regulator and mares rover 2 s ?
Monica s  The rover 2S is newer and has a protective cover added to the 1st stage, designed to hold a tracking system for rental facilities. 2nd stages are the same.
Shopper  Why Did You Choose This?
DON R  Great price and a reputable company.
