Unbalanced Regulators (The Difference)"},"content":{"rendered":"\n
You\u2019ve started your research on regulators while trying to decide what to buy, and you keep coming across the same confusing terms — balanced or unbalanced. What do they mean? <\/p>\n\n\n\n
What is the difference between a balanced and unbalanced scuba regulator?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Essentially, a balanced regulator will breathe the same no matter how deep you are or how much air is left in your scuba tank (the ease of breathing is not dependent on your tank pressure). An unbalanced regulator, however, may feel more difficult to breathe from as the pressure in the tank gets lower, or as a diver\u2019s depth changes during the dive.<\/strong><\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
