  • On unit I did about 200 dives , max depth was 72 m (diulent air) and 85 m (Trimix 10/50 , bottom time 10 minutes, dive time 75 minutes). This rebreather have axial scruber. Generaly CO2 sensor is more necessary with dangerous radial scruber.

  • Hi, the best WOB is when counterlung is on this same level like lungs of diver or a little under. In my rebreather when I keep horizontal position with angle 10-20 % WOB is very good (and chest is clean). , it is typical diver position. Pleasure of diving is like diving with single tank (OC). Scruber takes 2.7 kg sorb (I used dragger sorb and Sofnolime 2,5-5 mm) , my longest dive was about 3 hours and on one sorb a dive about 6 hours (water temperature 28 C , Red Sea).

  • Yes , it is leaking from tank valve (I must change oring) , not from breathing loop.

  • If You have any guestions please sent me email tstas@tlen.pl

  • thought of seeling the unit in big style?

  • Beautiful. I gather your counterlung is high, how do you like that (is noticably harder to inhale?...the idea of being belly-free of equipment is appealing. I am going to build my own rebreather. Do you have CO2 sensor (for indication of failed scrubber) or do do rely on other indications (overflowing counterlung)??

  • It`s so beauteful !

  • How did your positive and negative test perform as you appear to have a leak?.

    Did you do a bubble test when you went into the water?.

    Well done for ingenuity.

  • This is awesome. I've been thinking about using the same materials. I've got a ton of questions but for now, how was it?
