Apeks swivel hose

I am trying to find an online store which has the Apeks swivel hose in stock. I have an Aqua Lung Legend LX.

If you know of where I can find one, let me know, thanks!

I have one on one of my regs (I think mines a Atomic swivel hose). I'll tell you what though! I think Miflex hoses made swivel hoses obsolete. I have a Miflex hose on another reg and it's cheap and much nicer than any swivel hose ever could come close to.

Is the issue that you're looking for a 1/2" hose instead of the more common 3/8"? Apart from that, I don't see what's so special about my Apeks hoses compared with the ones on my other regs.

What do you mean by swivel hose. Do you wan ta swivel on the second stage.

Apeks now uses standard 3/8" hoses on there regs.

No. I am talking about the ball swivel at the 2nd stage that Apeks makes. Two of my dive buddies have them, and they are very nice.

I looked at the hose recommended above, but see no advantage to it.

Still can't find the swivel anywhere....perhaps Apeks discontinued it?
