Rahman Patel –
The Mares Epic Octopus exceeded my expectations. Its adjustable breathing comfort and pneumatically balanced second stage made my diving experience smooth and enjoyable. However, the superflex hose could be more durable.
Leow Lee –
Can anyone compare the Mares Epic Octopus with the other popular octopus-style regulators? How does the pneumatically balanced second stage affect the airflow in comparison to other models?
Junhao Lo –
Thank you for your review, Leow Lee. The Mares Epic Octopus is a high-performance regulator, and its pneumatically balanced second stage is indeed one of its key features. This design provides a smooth airflow and helps to reduce the work of breathing. In comparison to other octopus-style regulators, the Mares Epic Octopus offers a more efficient air delivery system, which can be beneficial for technical dives or when breathing through the regulator for extended periods. If you’re interested in comparing it to other popular models, I recommend checking out the Cressi Calypso Octopus or the Scubapro MK25-S600 Octopus. Both of these regulators have their own unique features and benefits, but they share similar design principles with the Mares Epic Octopus.

The Mares Epic Octopus is an excellent addition to any diver’s gear. Its wide pivoting purge button and twin power system make it highly efficient. However, it could be improved with a more compact design.
Jessica Tan –
Overall, the Mares Epic Octopus is an impressive device. Its high air flow and adjustable breathing comfort make it perfect for long dives. My only gripe is the price, which seems a bit steep for a diving regulator.

I’ve had my Mares Epic Octopus for a few months now, and I’m not entirely satisfied with it. Although it’s very durable and feels high-quality, the airflow could be better, and it takes some getting used to the pivoting purge button.
Kevin Goh –
Can I use the Mares Epic Octopus for both cold and warm water diving?
Junhao Lo –
Thank you for your question, Kevin! The Mares Epic Octopus is designed to provide excellent performance in a wide range of diving conditions. The twin power system and pneumatically balanced second stage ensure a consistent and stable air supply, while the adjustable breathing comfort feature allows you to customize the feel to your preferences. For cold water diving, the Epic Octopus’s high air flow and superflex hose provide excellent gas delivery and reduce the risk of ice buildup. For warm water diving, the same features provide a comfortable and relaxed breathing experience. I would recommend the Mares Epic Octopus for both cold and warm water diving.

Does the Mares Epic Octopus come with a lifetime warranty?
Junhao Lo –
Thank you for reaching out about the Mares Epic Octopus! Although our documentation does not explicitly state a lifetime warranty, Mares does offer a 2-year limited warranty on their dive gear. However, we recommend contacting Mares customer service directly to get the most up-to-date information on their warranty policies and to confirm what is covered.

What makes the Mares Epic Octopus’s breathing system so unique?
Imran Hanafiah –
Thank you for your question, Daniel. The Mares Epic Octopus’s breathing system is unique due to its twin power system, which provides both manual and automatic adjustment for optimal breathing comfort. The pneumatically balanced second stage ensures consistent airflow, while the wide pivoting purge button makes it easy to clear out water from the second stage. Additionally, the Superflex hose provides flexibility and comfort during the dive. I hope this information helps!
Emily Wong –
Can anyone tell me what material is the main frame made of? Does the Mares Epic Octopus support cold water diving? I have never dived in waters below 15°C before. I am excited to use this product but need to make sure it will perform in those conditions.
Imran Hanafiah –
Thank you for reaching out to us, Emily. The main frame of the Mares Epic Octopus is made of high-quality stainless steel, which provides excellent durability and corrosion resistance. As for cold water diving, the Mares Epic Octopus is designed to function optimally in a wide range of water temperatures, including cold water. However, it’s essential to note that the performance of a dive computer or regulator in cold water can be affected by the water’s viscosity and the diver’s breathing rate. If you’re planning to dive in waters below 15°C for the first time, we recommend consulting the user manual and doing some research to ensure you’re comfortable with the dive. Additionally, you may want to consider consulting with a dive professional or instructor to get personalized advice. If you have any further questions or concerns, please don’t hesitate to reach out. We’re here to help.

I’ve used the Mares Epic Octopus on multiple dives now. The breathing comfort is truly adjustable, and I enjoy how easy it is to purge the system.
Raghav Sivasubramanian –
Does the “Twin Power System” in this product refer to a dual power source or just power-boosting?
Junhao Lo –
Thank you for your question, Raghav! The Twin Power System in the Mares Epic Octopus refers to a dual power source, allowing you to breathe comfortably even in cold water conditions. The system uses a combination of two power elements to deliver a high flow rate and reduce breathing resistance. This feature is designed to provide a seamless and efficient diving experience. -Mares Support Team

Overall, I’m quite satisfied with the Mares Epic Octopus. I like how easy it is to use the regulator. However, I encountered a minor issue where the second stage made a slightly higher pitched whine when my breathing pattern changed. Still, an excellent product.
