I think everyone is missing the true benefit of this new revolutionary
product. It allows you to keep your tanks on the boat. Only the
transmitter needs to be in the water. The boat can now monitor your gas
and if you run out then they switch tanks for you. The only problem
they are now working on is signaling you when to hold your breath!!
This is eliminated with the use of a full face masks since they have
radio transmitters built in. The mate on the boat simply says, "hold
your breath". With the use of this product, should you NOT have another
tank on the boat then the mate can just perform mouth to mouth with the
first stage, hope they brushed their teeth that morning. :-)
Wow, spent way too much on that one......
Safe diving,

This regulator is NOT new !
It has been announced in the april-edition of the german
"unterwasser".
In the next edition (may) some divers wanted to be beta-tester
(no
kidding).
By the way: They are going to make a hogarth-version for this
years April
magzine maybe,
it is coming with a long-range transmitter similar to the
long-hose !!
One main-problem is when divers swap regulators by accident,
because then
the
one diver is breathing of the other divers tank. When out of
range this
might suck !
Next thing to come: stage-tanks with magnetic attachment to
harness.
The problem here: Where to put the D-Rings then ??
I might ask a Tattoo-shop if they can do some cool piercings.
Bondage-Wing-dudes might clip the stages to D-Rings attached to
their
nipples.
Cool Tekkie-Dudes can clip the Reel somewhere beneath the
crotch-strap...

Folks, a new regulator will be introduced a DEMA this year that
consists
of a revolutionary new type of first stage that attaches to a
scuba tank
as usual. A special proprietary transmitter attaches to the low
pressure
port and delivers the contents of the scuba tank- without a
hose- to the
second stage that is equipped with a proprietary gas receiver.
Each
transmitter is set at a different frequency so that you cannot
inadvertently send your gas to your buddy who is using a similar
device
and comes into range of yours. A spare second stage equipped
with a
receiver can be carried in your BC pocket for redundancy or to
give to
another diver in trouble for buddy breathing ( the in-trouble
diver must
stay within 100 yards of your transmitter to receive your gas
supply).
In
this way, you can stay far away from a panic stricken diver and
yet
supply
them with breathing gas. This system revolutionizes existing
scuba
systems
and makes issues he the long hose or short moot. It is made in
France.
This is all I know but I will see it at DEMA.
