Does anyone know what the mouthpiece divers use to get oxygen is called? I know the oxygen tank and stuff...but I can't think of the word for the actual mouth piece...thanks!

I think I've heard the term "regulartor" used refering to it.

I went and looked up regulator at dictionary.com and this is one of the definitions it gave me... ~a device on scuba equipment for regulating the rate at which compressed air is fed through a breathing tube in proportion to the depth of water. I'm not sure if that's the actualy mouth piece or not, this definition is kind of complicated lol! To me it sounds like it is something that helps the oxygen tank give the air to the mouthpiece...but I don't know! =P You def. know you scuba stuff either way!
