Hi guys.
I have asso 115 and yould like to purchase a pressure gauge, not sure what to get, just pressure gauge or complete gauge with pump. Also where to get one from in the UK.

Many thanks.............:duh
 
I am pretty sure you'd need an adapter as Seac doesn't make gauges for their guns. Omer has a gauge with an adapter but I have not had too much luck with mine. Basically, the pin that presses on the valve is too short but maybe mine is just a lemon and others are fine?
LG Sub makes some really nice accessories and I think they have one for Seacs. Or Marko might be able to make you one.

Hi Diving Gecko.
Thanks for your reply, could you post me some links where I can have an idea. I already had a look at Omer gauges but wasn't sure what to get, my worry is if I get just a gauge without a t connector, I will be loosing more pneumatic oil and I feel it is not practical to keep on pumping and checking it is a waste of time. What do you think?

Thanks again.
 
Well, you can't just get only a gauge, it needs to at least have an o-ring to make a seal. You don't really use much oil at all. And if the adapter is well designed with very little dead space for the air to go into when taking the measurement, you don't loose much air by taking the measurements at all. With the Omer gauge and adapter, I'd say I lost less than half a bar when taking measurements, so that's not bad.
This is the LG one, it looks well made and I think you can even attach the pump to the end of it, not sure:
Manometro per fucili Mares/Seac

I was considering buying one of their reels, but shipping was crazy at the time. Maybe they have sorted out something better now.

But maybe someone else can chip in on the Omer adapter for Seac - as said, maybe mine is a lemon and the rest are ok. Then, that'd prolly be the easiest way.

Thank you again for your post, I am going to enquire about the LG, it looks pretty good.

@Fets, did you end up getting the LG gauge? And if yes, did you work out an OK shipping price? I am considering their reels, hence the question.

Hi Diving Gecko.
I have purchased the LG pressure gauge and I found it to be the cheapest on the net and very good value for money, I like their service and the way they packed the gauge.
I think this gauge is better and smaller than Omer's. Also no need for any adaptors for the Asso 115. I have paid £54.00 all inclusive.
Thanks again for the advice.
