George, enough with the moisture on the sensors already - that's a dead issue. There are VERY simple ways to keep moisture off the sensors. There are VERY simple ways to determine whether or not the sensors are giving you accurate information. You're a clever guy - I bet you can figure it out. Go back and read my message - one of the things you have is a diluent with a known O2 concentration. What I didn't mention, but should have, is you have a back-up depth gauge. So, you know your depth, you know the gas fraction....come on....you can figure it out...think hard. > Since they have been around > longer than you are old, I wonder why? I really don't know why. Rod? Will the BioMarine Scheme allow for the bailout I suggested? Maybe there's not enough difference between the "high" and the "low" in the counterlung volumes? Help me out here, Rod. You seem to be the only one on this list whose opinions on rebreathers George respects. Is my bailout scenario way off base? Why do you s'pose the Navy doesn't do that? I've never dived on one of their rebreathers, so I don't know. > Real World - go cave diving with one of these is a real cave and > then tell us how easy and safe they are. Why does nobody do this? I told you George, because there are no reef fish inside caves. Aloha, Rich
