Description Mares Fusion Octopus – Metal Technology, Alternate Air Source Regulator Mares Fusion Octopus, Alternate Air Source. The Fusion octopus is equipped with Twin Power, VAD and VAD systems. It allows you to adjust airflow without compromising your breathing effort. Maximum performance, even in cold water. The Fusion octopus is robust and reliable. The body is made from chrome-plated brass with a ‘pearl’ finish. It has high thermal conductivity properties that make it ideal for use in very cold water. Vortex Assisted Design (VAD) allows unimpeded airflow and constant natural breathing at any depth. The innovative Twin Power System offers further adjustment by allowing the diver to control the speed of airflow. A simple twist increases airflow when required. The Ultra second stage is pneumatically balanced with the PAD (Pneumatic Assisted Design) system, offering comfortable, effortless breathing in every situation. The combination of PAD and Twin Power systems, combined with the ability to adjust breathing effort, provides the best performance with maximum comfort, in all conditions at all depths. A Superflex hose links the first stage to the second stage and provides support and flexibility for comfortable diving. Mares Fusion Octopus – Features All Metal Technology: Outstanding mechanical reliability and high thermal conductivity make our metal 2nd stages extremely long lasting and ideal for cold water dives. The high thermal conductivity of metal reduces also the dry mouth feeling during the dive. VAD – Vortex Assisted Design: The air bypass tube delivers air to the mouthpiece creating a swirling vortex with a low pressure area in the center that keeps the diaphragm down during inhalation, for very sensitive and easy breathing at all depths. Superflex Hose: Extreme light weight and exceptional softness guarantee the maximum freedom of movement. Twin Power: New, flow control manages the delivery rate of your gas, from natural breathing to power breathing. The former is the traditional way of breathing a Mares regulator, (VAD) while the latter (VAD ) provides an extra push when you need it.
