I've noticed that my mouth and throat really dry out after breathing off the regulator for awhile. Obviously I can't grab a drink of water down there, so is there any solution or trick to resolve this?

Thanks.

2. sip
3. swish
4. spit
5. replace reg

    ... That's because the Poseidon Cyclon is to a higher interstage pressure of approximately 11.5 bar or 169psi, because these regulators were designed for and being used as the standard for deep air diving in the days before Tri-Mix diving became mainstream and lost the 'demon gas' slander. ... thus a high IP is not required to allow the gas to flow sufficiently and, in some cases, a reg configured with standard IP could engender a free-flow in shallow depths. ... unlike a balance 1st stage which should deliver the same gas delivery until the ambient (water) pressure is almost the same as the cylinder pressure. ...
