Regin Regax1 gas analyser

[barney48]

Sometime ago someone was asking whether these were any good.
Having had one since Jan 2011 i can definately say NO.
The idea and the cost are fine but mine after 4 or 5 uses now only decides to work when it feels like it.. rather like me actually..
Its under guarantee but I bought it from Mytub and they have yet to answer my emails.
I phoned Regan themselves and they were so offhand- had no idea why it wouldnt work and didnt really want to know and said I should contact Kane for a recalibration service.

I had a Kane 800 but it cost me over £245 for the 2 yearrecalibration and oxygen sensor replacement that I thought spending £269 on one that had a sensor that would last 5 years seemed the better option, but now wish I had looked at another make entirely.

You get what you pay for with an analyser. I've got a Regin manometer but I wouldn't buy a FGA from anyone other than Anton or Kane.

Love my Kane 455, it does all I need it to do and loads of other handy stuff to boot.

Just to update- once I has sussed out how to contact Mytub they were great and I have now a replacement which arrived today- whether this will be trouble free remains to be seen but I certainly DONT recommend Regin- not only for their products but their after sales service.
