does anyone know where i can buy a drysuit nipple from, i need the type thats on most bcd inflators.
i have the big apex type and need to change it to the smaller one, or if any one has one spare for a couple of quid

I am no expert but it may be the hose you need to change

I've got a spare with hose. Swap you for the big fat one and its hose?

Try Buddy - AP Valves. They sell them, but there is a problem with some hoses on their nipples.

Mr Babbage says "ner neeeeeer". AP Valves nipples have a little sticky uppy bit and are slightly different for some god only knows reason from every other BCD inflator nipple on the planet. It means that you can't get a standard hose on an AP nipple but you can get an AP hose on a standard nipple but the air flow is rubbish as the sticky uppy bit isn't there to open the connector valve sticky downy bit fully.

do you mean the female that goes on the auto air??

what i need is a nipple that fits all the hoses on the unit , so if the argon goes pop or runs out then at least you have options.

i meant the male that is already fitted to the auto air that the hose goes onto
