I’ve been using the Mares 82X for a few months now and it’s been a great addition to my diving gear. The pre-oriented HP ports make it so much easier to set up and the natural DFC on all LP ports is a must-have for me. 5/5 stars!

I recently purchased the Mares 82X 1st Stage Regulator – INT and I must say it’s a game-changer. The swivel turret makes it so much easier to manage my air supply while diving. The natural DFC on all LP ports is also a huge plus. The only thing that would make it better is a slightly more compact design. 4.5/5 stars.

Thank you for reaching out to us about the Mares 82X 1st Stage Regulator – INT. Unfortunately, it does not come with a built-in pressure gauge. However, the First stage dry system (AST) included in the product is designed to improve its overall performance and reliability.

What are the different stages of a regulator and how does the Mares 82X compare to other regulators on the market?
Junhao Lo –
Thank you for taking the time to reach out to us and share your questions about the Mares 82X 1st Stage Regulator – INT.
A regulator, also known as a dive computer or scuba regulator, typically consists of multiple stages, which are designed to manage the pressure and airflow for a safe and efficient dive. The main stages include the 1st stage, 2nd stage, and sometimes a backup regulator. The Mares 82X features a first-stage dry system which prevents any water from entering and reaching the 2nd stage.
Comparing the Mares 82X to other regulators on the market, it has received high praise for its reliability and performance. Many of our customers have noted the swivel turret feature, which greatly improves air flow and reduces kinking. Additionally, the Pre-oriented HP ports and the AST system ensure a clean and efficient operation.

Can someone tell me how to prevent the regulator from corroding over time?
Imran Hanafiah –
Thank you for reaching out, Aaron! To prevent the Mares 82X 1st Stage Regulator from corroding over time, we recommend regular cleaning and maintenance. Use a soft cloth and mild detergent to wipe down the regulator after each use. Dry it thoroughly with a clean towel and store it in a dry place. Additionally, we recommend applying a small amount of silicone-based lubricant to the moving parts to prevent rust and corrosion. We’d be happy to provide more information on regulator maintenance or offer any further assistance.
