The bottles on the 15.5 and so on are spheres. A real closed circuit rebreather has very small containers - the usual people who use these devices are paid to die, you all forget, and the least of their worries is drowning. Highly skilled divers and technicians like Rod can operate these in their work environment, and can use a third bottle to help bailout, but we are talking guys who could dive the Monitor on a pony bottle in the fist place, so to put it bluntly, most of you rebreather dreamers are jerking yourselves off. Take King and Stone in Wakula for example - they will need three or four times the bailout gas (assuming they ever get in) over what we need for open circuit since we CAN DO the dives on open circuit in the first place, and they CAN NOT I would suggest to all potential rebrether buyers that they get so good they don't need a rebrether, like Farb is already, and get the knowledge of all dive gear funtion first (like Farb already has from years of experience) and know the dive conditions inside and out (like Farb does aleready) , and then buy yourself a rebreather and have some fun playing with it - my kids have a great time with mine in the pool.
