"HP / LP ports" is the number of high-pressure and low-pressure ports on the first stage, which caps how many accessories (transmitter, SPG, inflator, second second-stage) you can run at once.

Pros
  • Two-piece piston plus Sherwood's Three Pin Link (3PL) depth-compensation linkage, which Sherwood spec's at under 0.65 joules/liter of work of breathing at 50msw/165fsw
  • One-touch performance adjustment and a "SMART" demand lever intended to relieve load on the second-stage seat over time, extending seat life between services
  • Special Edition platinum finish and carry case mark it as a genuine limited 70th-anniversary run rather than a re-badged SR2
Cons
  • Sherwood also sells the SR3 70th in a DIN configuration, so confirm connector type if you need DIN rather than this yoke version
  • A significant step up in price over the standard SR2, largely paying for the anniversary finish, case, and refined internals rather than a wholesale redesign
  • No octopus included at this price, a second stage like the dedicated SR3 Octopus is a separate purchase

Released in 2025 to mark 70 years since Sherwood entered the scuba business, the SR3 is the newest top-tier flow-through piston regulator in the SR line, launched directly above the SR2 that remains in the catalog as the standard flagship. It carries forward the SR2’s sealed-and-dry piston design but adds a two-piece piston and Sherwood’s Three Pin Link linkage for depth compensation, wrapped in a special-edition platinum finish and carry case.
