The Genesis Argo Octopus (or Argo Octo) is a premium, high-visibility alternate air source designed to deliver the exact same high-performance breathing efficiency as the Argo primary regulator.
Engineered for safety and reliability, it combines an eye-catching design for rapid underwater identification with advanced tuning features to handle emergency air-sharing situations seamlessly.
Same breathing performance as the Argo primary — in a high-visibility yellow design built for quick identification underwater.
High Visibility Backup Breathing When It Matters Most
Reliable air sharing starts with a backup you can instantly locate and trust. The Genesis Argo octopus is built as a dependable alternate air source regulator, delivering clear visibility through a bright yellow front cover and matching braided hose. This purposeful design allows quick identification during shared air situations, helping divers respond faster and maintain control when seconds count.
Smooth Breathing with Simple Performance Control
Consistent airflow and effortless inhalation define this scuba octopus regulator. A pneumatically balanced second stage supports stable breathing performance across varying depths, while the single knob adjustment allows precise tuning of breathing resistance. The integrated Venturi switch further refines airflow behavior, providing predictable delivery and positioning this unit as a reliable emergency backup regulator for recreational and advanced diving setups.
Lightweight Hose Design for Comfort and Mobility
Streamlined movement and comfort are supported by a flexible braided hose equipped with a swivel connection that promotes natural positioning and reduces drag. A soft ergonomic mouthpiece minimizes jaw fatigue, and the compact, lightweight profile integrates easily into existing regulator configurations. Designed for visibility, comfort, and dependable operation, this octopus with braided hose adds confidence to every dive plan.
When an emergency or air-sharing situation occurs, seconds count.
Bright Yellow Accents: Features a highly visible yellow front cover and a matching yellow hose, making it instantly recognizable to a buddy or teammate in low-visibility environments.
Streamlined Profile: Despite its performance capabilities, it maintains a lightweight and compact build, preventing it from dragging on the reef or creating unnecessary bulk on your BCD.
Unlike standard backup regulators that can feel rigid or hard to breathe from, the Argo Octopus replicates the premium breathing experience of a primary second stage.
Pneumatically Balanced: Delivers exceptionally smooth, natural, and consistent airflow, ensuring that a stressed diver can breathe effortlessly regardless of depth or remaining tank pressure.
Single-Knob Performance Adjustment: A manual control knob allows you to dial in your exact breathing resistance preferences on the fly.
Venturi Switch: Includes a dedicated pre-dive/dive Venturi switch to direct internal airflow. This is crucial for preventing annoying free-flows while at the surface or swimming through surf, while maximizing air delivery at depth.
Braided Hose with Swivel: Comes equipped with an ultra-flexible, lightweight braided hose and an integrated swivel connection. This setup moves naturally with head rotation, drastically reducing jaw fatigue and eliminating the "hose tug" common with traditional rubber hoses.
Nitrox Compatibility: Ready for enriched air mixtures up to 40% Nitrox straight out of the box.
