Rich,

Deformed canister didn't seem to catch your attention? Does the Cis Lunar=
 canister deform under pressure?  Since canisters are on our backs, it is=
 hard to say if they deform, but I don't think mine does! At least I don't=
 have any leakage. I have never seen a Drager unit, but from this post I=
 would think it is very frail?

Channeling is the the obvious danger. With a good channel set up you should=
 have very little breathing resistance and extremely poor CO2 absorption=
 outside of the channel. Nor should  there be much if any noticeable=
 breathing resistance if you have a good channeling system set up.

Death would be the big worry.

I would think these problems concern both semi-closed and fully-closed syste=
ms.

Mike
