The second stage also has a Twin Power system that allows you to control the airflow of the VAD system, ensuring natural breathing at any depth.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>\n<p>The Epic 82X scuba diving regulator combines the traditional advantages of Mares regulators with the latest technological innovations and exclusive design. The regulator features a first stage which stays dry with a rotating turret and a state-of-the-art second stage with a Twin Power system.<\/p>\n<p>First Stage<\/p>\n<p>The first stage of the Epic Adj 82X has a 360\u00b0 rotating turret. The special design of the HP ports (OPD) allows the high-pressure hose and\/or computer transmitter to be pre-oriented at all times, regardless of the position of the first stage, offering maximum comfort.<\/p>\n<p>The 82X is a balanced membrane first stage. Thanks to this feature, it always guarantees top performance and reliability at any depth and with any supply pressure. A careful study of air flow has made it possible to optimise the internal air passages that guarantee natural DFC, obtaining high air flow on all the low pressure ports.<\/p>\n<p>The AST (Auto-Sealing Technology) anti-flooding system is incorporated as standard in the 82X first stage: the system is automatically activated by air flow without any mechanical solution for maximum reliability, creating anti-flooding protection that keeps the first stage dry in all conditions.<\/p>\n<p>The forging process used to make the body results in a compact, lightweight and attractive product, making the Epic Adj 82X&#8217;s first stage unique. It is available with an INT or DIN connection.<\/p>\n<p>Second Stage<\/p>\n<p>The second stage of the Epic Adj 82X diving regulator was designed by Mares to be the absolute top of the line.<\/p>\n<p>The VAD system exploits the Venturi effect by conveying 90% of the air in to a side bypass. The airflow passes through it without encountering any levers and\/or mechanisms, ensuring maximum performance even in extreme situations, such as diving in cold water.<\/p>\n<p>The Twin Power System allows the VAD system&#8217;s air flow to be controlled, ensuring natural breathing at any depth and providing the necessary amount of air in relation to the diver&#8217;s demand.<\/p>\n<p>Breathing comfort is adjustable according to the diver&#8217;s needs thanks to a knob which is easy to use, even with thick gloves; a feature that Mares also applies to the purge button, which is large and pivoting, for easy and immediate use.<\/p>\n<p>PVD technology has been used to create this regulator. PVD is an acronym for Physical Vapor Deposition and indicates a technology used to deposit a thin metal film over various types of substrates. The process takes place in a vacuum chamber in which the metals to be deposited are evaporated. PVD coatings are particularly well-suited to innovative, advanced technical products.<\/p>\n<p>Pneumatic balancing completes the list of advantages of this second stage. It is also available as an Octopus in the classic yellow colour.<\/p>\n<p>Maintenance and care: Mares recommends rinsing and carefully drying the Epic Adj 82X regulator after every dive to avoid dirty and\/or blue spots on the PVD surface due to limestone residue.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-4195\" src=\"https:\/\/scubatecdiving.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/mares-1.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"200\" height=\"100\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":4180,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":[],"product_cat":[110,98],"product_tag":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-4177","1":"product","2":"type-product","3":"status-publish","4":"has-post-thumbnail","6":"product_brand-mares","7":"product_cat-regulators","8":"product_cat-scuba-diving","10":"first","11":"instock","12":"shipping-taxable","13":"purchasable","14":"product-type-simple","15":"col-xs-6 col-sm-4","16":"col-md-3 col-lg-3","17":"un-4-cols"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/scubatecdiving.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/4177","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/scubatecdiving.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/scubatecdiving.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/scubatecdiving.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=4177"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/scubatecdiving.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/4180"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/scubatecdiving.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4177"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"product_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/scubatecdiving.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat?post=4177"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/scubatecdiving.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_tag?post=4177"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
