Hollis has issued a formal Stop Use / Stop Sale notice for certain 200LX second-stage regulators, advising divers to remove affected units from service immediately due to a potential safety risk.

The notice applies to Hollis 200LX + DCX regulator systems and related second-stage configurations purchased between 2 May 2017 and 15 May 2025.

Component concern

According to parent company Huish Outdoors, internal components within some 200LX second stages may separate or fracture, either before or after a dive. The issue centres on the inlet tube assembly, which may lose impact resistance if the regulator is dropped or struck at the adjustable inhalation knob.

Hollis SMS75

The Hollis SMS75 sidemount system fills the gap between the sturdy SMS100 and the minimalist SMS50 lightweight siblings making it a hybrid that combines the best of the two into this new harness.

Hollis states that it was designed with all environments in mind, with a wing optimised for horizontal diving with increased lift around the hips. The SMS75 also supports rear-mounted tanks and reversible inflator positions.
