Hogarthian Octopus Set – 1st Stage V1 + 2nd Stage TEC2 + Pressure Gauge

Advanced technical configuration in DIR / Hogarthian style for single tank, based on the revolutionary V1 ICE first stage with 45° angled ports and latest generation TEC2 second stages. Allows for impeccable hose routing parallel to the body, equivalent to the V2 system for twin tanks. Includes V1 ICE first stage, two TEC2 second stages with DFS technology (primary and backup with bungee), 1.93 m long hose, compact pressure gauge with short hose, stainless steel single-ended bolt snaps, and carry bag. Choose your hoses directly from the dropdown menu.

The Tecline V1 TEC2 SEMI TEC + SPG Regulator Set, available on DIR-STORE, represents the definitive evolution for the demanding single-tank diver. This "SemiTec I" set combines the unique geometric advantages of the V1 ICE first stage – designed to keep hoses perfectly organized and close to the body – with the cutting-edge breathing performance of the TEC2 second stages. Configured according to the DIR / Hogarthian philosophy, it features the primary regulator on a 1.93 m long hose (ready for immediate donation) and the backup second stage positioned at the neck via a comfortable elastic bungee. An extraordinary combination that eliminates mouth tension and ensures maximum hydrodynamics.

Technical Features:

• V1 ICE First Stage (Balanced Diaphragm, Angled Ports and Dry Chamber): Constructed from solid chrome-plated marine brass, the V1 ICE is specifically designed to optimize single-tank coupling. Thanks to its LP and HP ports angled downwards at 45°, the hoses do not undergo forced bends and run parallel to the tank. The sealed dry chamber completely isolates the internal components from the surrounding water, preventing ice formation (free-flow) and blocking the entry of sand or sediment (DIN 300 bar connection).
• Dual TEC2 Second Stage (DFS Technology and Elite Ergonomics): The TEC2 second stages integrate the innovative DFS (Direct Flow System) direct flow system. This technology optimizes internal airflow to minimize breathing effort (WOB) in any situation and depth. The casing is shielded by a solid anti-shock stainless steel ring, and the internal metal parts are protected by an anti-friction Teflon coating.
• Flow Control and Adjustments: Both second stages are pneumatically balanced and feature a side knob for micrometric adjustment of the initial inspiratory effort, as well as a lever for managing the Venturi effect, essential for preventing free-flow when the backup second stage is positioned at the neck via the bungee.
• Hogarthian Layout and Proflex Hoses: The configuration adopts the pure DIR philosophy. The primary regulator is mounted on the 1.93 m Proflex long hose (which passes under the right arm and behind the neck), while the backup regulator is mounted on the 0.61 m Proflex short hose and held at the neck via the elastic bungee. Proflex hoses offer exceptional flexibility and significantly lighter weight than traditional rubber hoses.
• SPG 52 mm Technical Pressure Gauge: The kit includes a professional underwater analog pressure gauge with a 52 mm diameter chrome-plated brass case and a high-visibility dial. It comes with a 0.60 m black high-pressure (HP) hose, ideal for attaching to the left D-ring of the harness via one of the included bolt snaps, reducing bulk and hydrodynamic drag.
• Included Technical Accessories: The set comes ready to use with 2 x 88 mm single-ended bolt snaps in marine-grade stainless steel (for attaching the pressure gauge and primary second stage) and an elastic bungee for the backup regulator.
