<div>I wouldn't worry about it. I personally do not use them on my tec set ups for the reason I previously stated, but I know plenty of tec divers who do not do cave, wreaks, and other restrictions and have no problems.</div>

<div>Hi Scott,</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Ive got 2 of them installed already on both my two emergency regs (1st stage).. They seem fine, but I was wondering if they are prone to failure?. That makes sense with the cave diving\snagging etc being a problem for divers. In this case mine are ok, im not clanging them on anything.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Thanks</div>

<div>The reason most tec divers do not want the button gauges is because they are prone to failing in caves, wrecks, and other restrictions from getting snagged or banged on. You will notice all tec divers have a 6" hose connecting to a SPG on all stage tanks for this very reason. On a button gauge, they are mounted directly on the 1st stage. </div>

<div>hi All</div>
<div> </div>
<div>I have been talking with a couple of tech diver friends who say they don't use small button gauges as they are prone to bursting. Im not sure how accurate this info is, but I have 2 of these gauges in my boat. I put them on to save space.</div>
<div><br>Has anyone had any experience with them failing?</div>
