The Apeks XL4+ is a compact and versatile regulator based on the original XL4 but it has been updated with an additional high pressure port and a stylish new colour.

The XL4+ is a lightweight regulator that lends itself to travel diving but it is also certified for cold water use so it also a great regulator for all environments.

The first stage uses the same over-balanced diaphragm design as found in the rest of the Apeks first stage and incorporates a heat exchanger for cold water performance and is also environmentally sealed to to help protect the internal components from freezing ice and contaminants. There are four low pressure ports and two high pressure ports to offer plenty of hose routing options and the ability to mount an analogue pressure gauge as well as a wireless transmitter.

The second stage is finished with a lightweight white body, satin metal components and a black mouthpiece and exhaust cover. The compact second stage features a balanced valve for excellent performance and smooth breathing, diver adjustable venturi control, a heat exchanger on the inlet for improved cold water performance, a compact exhaust tee and the Apeks comfo-bite mouthpiece.

The regulator includes a white braided low pressure hose.

The Apeks XL4 Octopus is the perfect match for the XL4 regulator and continues the lightweight, coldwater performance. The octopus packs all of the same features and specification of the primary second stage but is fitted with high visibility yellow front cover highlights, mouthpiece and hose.

AQUA LUNG ROGUE BCD

The Aqua Lung Rogue is a lightweight, minimalist BCD with a modular design that makes it ideal for divers that struggle to find a BCD that fits them well. The Rogue has all the features any advanced diver would need but without the fuss that can unnecessarily bulk up a BCD.

The modular design of the Rogue allows shoulder straps, waist bands and backplate components to be swapped out for a customised fit, allowing up to 27 different size combinations to suit pretty much any diver. These pre-configured sizes are provide a good starting point but if you wanted to build a completely custom BCD from scratch you could do, just give us a call and we’ll help you out.

The Rogue has a 15L/35lb lift capacity, is fitted with Aqua Lung’s SureLock II weights, has two folding pockets, and four stainless steel D-rings.

If you have broad shoulders then you can connect large shoulder straps to a medium backplate and small waist. That way you don’t have to suffer a big baggy waist to allow for your larger shoulders. If you’re tall and skinny then you can fit a small shoulder strap and waist to a large backplate. The Rogue will literally change it’s shape to you so it you ever struggle with stock BCD sizes then this is the BCD for you.

On top of the modularity of the harness that can be customised to your shape the wing design of the Rogue gives you a sense of freedom in the water even when inflated. With the bladder behind you either side of the cylinder even if it’s fully inflated it can’t restrict your movement.

Travel
Becuase of the light, modular design the Rogue is great for the travelling diver. BCDs can be cumbersome and take up awkward space in your gear bag but he Rogue can be disassembled quickly and easily without any special tools.
Every part of the BCD can pack flat and because each part can be separated the whole thing can pack down into a small section in your bag.

APEKS SPG

Diving can be an exciting experience for first timers, but scuba divers must take essential accessories that help give you a safe and comfortable environment so your exploration of the ocean is perfect. The Apeks New Streamline Contents Gauge offers accurate pressure and provides you with information that lets you dive only till a limit where you can get back to the yacht safely.

The Apeks Streamline Contents Gauge has a range from 0 to 360 bar (metric) and includes a dial with large black digits written on a clear luminous background. It is easy to read even as you go deep in the water. It comes with an internal bourdon pressure measuring mechanism to give to clear information on the gas content of the cylinder you are using to breathe air.

Go warm, go cold, go deep, go anywhere. Enjoy control in the extreme with the MTX-RC scuba diving regulator. Combining rugged, military grade engineering with the super-smooth breathing experience that Apeks regulators are renowned for, the MTX-RC is the regulator that lets you explore more.

The MTX-RC is a modified version of the the original MTX-R that was designed to meet the requirements of the United States Navy Experimental Dive Unit extreme cold water test. In order to achieve this tough test the MTX-R is factory tuned with no diver adjustment. Apeks created the MTX-RC to give divers the option of fine tuning their regulator performance to suit their diving.

The MTX-RC first stage is engineered for the extreme cold with heat exchanging fins on nearly every surface. The over balanced diaphragm design is environmentally sealed to both help protect the internal components from ice crystal formation and also prevent damage from contamination. There are two pre-angled high pressure ports, four low pressure ports on the side of a swivelling turret and a high flow port of the end beneath a protective cap.

The second stage now features an oversized breathing effort adjuster on the side of the housing that will increase the amount of effort required to open the pneumatically balanced valve. Above that there is a venturi lever to alter the flow of air within the second stage, either directing it from the valve towards the mouthpiece or diverting it back towards the diaphragm to help close the valve. The second stage also features a large heat exchanger on the hose inlet to help increase the temperature as it passes into the second stage.

APEKS EXOTEC BCD

The Apeks Exotec BCD is a revolution in diving comfort, functionality and seductive engineering design. The ethos behind Exotec is the synthesis of equipment and diver. Created to fit like no other BCD and flow with the natural movement of the diver’s body, through the innovative BioReact articulation. Constructed with the usual, exacting Apeks build quality, the Exotec is a paradigm of form and function.

The GripTek fabric keeps the BCD is place both on the surface and underwater. The bladder is constructed from super-tough Armoguard slick skin for increased abrasion resistance, faster drying and have a reduced risk of bacterial growth due to the slick surface. G hook chest strap and tank retainer allow for 1 handed simple operation. 3 position height adjustable backplate allows for optimum fit and adjustable waist and shoulders. 2 large pockets can be folded up flat when not in use to reduce drag.

Wrapture Harness System – Using patented swivel shoulder buckles and a proprietary, ultra-thin back plate, the Wrapture provides unsurpassed comfort and stability. Wrapture prevents the BC from “riding-up” on the surface. Out of the water, the Wrapture keeps the cylinder close to your centre of gravity and transfers the weight to your hips. The result is the ability to stand up straight with a cylinder that is perfectly vertical. Because of the multiple size settings at the top of the shoulders, as well as either side of the waistband, a custom fit can be achieved through any one of 3 sizes.

SureLock I Mechanical Weight Release System (patented) – provides a safe, single-pull release. Inserting weight is as simple as insert and “click”. With SureLock, your weights are secure in the BC. Once engaged, the only way to release the weight is to pull on the handle.

There are 4 dump valves in all, one in each corner. 3 are proprietary flat valves are very streamlined and effective. The dump valve on the upper left is the rapid exhaust valve found at the top of the Powerline inflator. The Powerline inflator assembly boasts one of the fastest inflation rates in the industry. This environmentally sealed unit has integrated clips to keep the LP inflator hose tucked in securely.
