Mares Regulator Package: Planet Airmatic 88X TBP + Octopus Dual + Gauges + BCD Hose

If you're looking for a premium scuba regulator setup that combines cutting-edge breathing performance with a lighter, more streamlined backup system, this Mares regulator package is an excellent choice. It’s ideal for divers who want one of Mares’ most advanced primary regulators, but prefer to pair it with a lightweight and practical octopus for recreational or all-round diving. You’re getting a top-tier regulator set, a lightweight matching octopus, your choice of gauge setup, and a flexible Miflex BCD hose to complete the package.

At the heart of the package is the Mares Planet Airmatic 88X TBP Regulator DIN. This is Mares’ most advanced regulator, built to deliver Natural Breathing 2.0 through its innovative Airmatic Technology. For the first time, Mares has replaced traditional second stage springs with a pneumatic valve system, creating an exceptionally smooth and natural breathing experience with minimal resistance and virtually no mechanical wear. The second stage also features Vortex Assisted Design (VAD) for direct, responsive airflow, all-metal construction for excellent cold-water performance, and a manual override button for airflow control. Paired with the 88X TBP first stage, this regulator is engineered for demanding conditions. The environmentally sealed TBP Dry Kit, AST Auto Sealing Technology, Natural DFC on all low-pressure ports, swivel turret and additional in-line LP port all combine to create a regulator that is versatile, reliable and extremely capable in cold water, depth and high-performance diving scenarios.

Paired with it is the Mares Octopus Dual, built from ultra-lightweight technopolymer for reduced overall system weight and a consistent feel in use. Its large purge button makes it easy to locate and operate when needed, while the Superflex hose improves comfort and freedom of movement in the water. Practical, lightweight and dependable, it provides a strong backup air source for recreational diving and helps keep the overall package a little lighter and simpler than an all-metal octopus setup.

To complete the package, you can choose your preferred gauge setup and receive a Miflex Xtreme BCD Hose x 65cm. The Miflex SPG fitted with 80cm Carbon HD hose offers a lightweight and compact solution for divers who prefer to keep things simple, while the Mares Mission 2 Console adds the convenience of both pressure and depth readings in one robust, easy-to-read unit. The included Miflex Xtreme BCD hose uses a standard 3/8" fitting with a quick-release coupler, making it suitable for most BCDs, wings and drysuits using a standard QD connection. Its braided construction provides excellent flexibility and durability, helping complete a practical and dependable regulator package.
