Ok...just out of quriosity/ Do you think you could have enough pressure to run two second stages and a inflator hose of the back of a Royal Aqua Master with the attatchment on the Hooka port ? Or would running just one safe second just get enough juice to be safe ?

A Royal AquaMaster has the equivalent of a US Divers Conshelf (now Titan) first stage. The Navy rated that as acceptable under moderately hard conditions to 100- feet.
If you had three non-excited divers you could probably run two octo's above 100' without a problem. But why would you want three people breathing off one regulator at the same time? It would be sort of a crowd.

Well a couple of people and myself were having a hypothetical conversation if it is possible to dive DIR with a double hoses Reg. I said that it is possible.
In order to do it you would need one safe second as a b bailout reg integrated into the double hose mouthpeice or DSV. On top of that you would also need to have a second ,second stage on a 5ft hose for donation to your Dive partner in the avent of a buddy situation. Also the need for a lp inflator hose must be satisfied.
With the Rpyal being able to satisfy these situations then it is possible to dive DIR on a two hose reg with one tank.

Would the "bailout reg integrated mouthpiece" fit the standard Aquamaster hoses, or would something have to be modified?

If you go to the Rebreathersite.com they show the different mouthpeices made out of PVC pipeing and they are way better then the standard Aqua Master ones for safety reason's. They have a ball valve so you can close the mouthpeice not alowing water to enter.
