   I am scared to dive an electronic rebreather . i have used ones like the 
Odessy without being scared of it, as there is nothing but mechancial failure
to 
worry about, and that I can deal with. I am just afraid to use the ones that 
rely on sensors and elctronics, like the MK16, the one Farb has, or the ones
you 
have. Gavin tell sme the EX19 and the MK16 work fine for hours, but I don't see 
him diving one. The diving I do requires that the gear be ignored and the job 
concentrated on- if I were hypoxic or hyoperoxic, I would never know it, except 
maybe at deco, and I may not even notice hypercapnia, although that is usually 
pretty obvious. Not for me, although if I were not afrraid of them, a unit like 
Farbs would realy come in handy in the Bahamas or walking around looking at 
sinkholes. Yours is a litle large for that, chief
