OTS Spectrum Full Face Mask
Description
The Spectrum is the best Full Face Mask (FFM) to mount your 2nd-Stage Regulator.
The Spectrum Mask from OTS has created the best of both worlds for divers. You can enjoy the benefits and luxury of a FFM while also using your own regulators, thus eliminating the large costs usually associated with Full Face Masks. Ocean Technology Systems say they've created the best FFM on the market and it's the Spectrum. With add on options such as the Ambient Breathing Valve® (ABV) to conserve air at the surface, mounts, brackets for adding cameras or lights, and communications to stay connected, you now have the option to build your mask how you want it or stick with the bare necessities.

2. Insert the second stage regulator mouthpiece tube into the regulator port through the front of the Spectrum FFM.
3. Now install a military standard (MS3367-7-0) zip tie tightly around second stage regulator, ensure that it wraps around and fastens the mouthpiece tube securely to the Spectrum FFM.

Why does the Spectrum FFM have a coated lens option?
The "tinted" (iridium) lens isn't an orange tint, we know it does look like one on the photos. The Coated lens on the OTS Spectrum is a blue lens tint with an orange reflective, similar to Iridium tinted sunglasses. If you are diving predominantly in tropical waters with a lot of sunlight, this coated lens is perfect. Not only does it look good, it'll help you improve visibility and reduce glare. You can replace the glass if you don't like it or if you wanted to try the tinted lens.
