any thoughts on how to fit a fourth cell into the Copis head for the Shearwater GF. I could leave the HUD and stock handset access to the three cells but I just can't figure out how to deal with the 4th cell issue.

(1): There's no elegent way to add a 4th cell to a Meg. You either cut the inhale hose and add a "T" or add a P-Port into the inhale counterlung. Neither is optimal.

(2): Solution: Bin the Shearwater idea. Use three cells: Run (2) to a rEvodream for 2-cell HUD and handset, and the 3rd to a totally independant VR-3 and you'll have all you ever wanted..... it'll be a perfect setup.

And you see a girls brown body dancing through the turquoise, And her footprints make you follow where the sky loves the sea. And when your fingers find her, she drowns you in her body, Carving deep blue ripples in the tissues of your mind...... Last edited by Dave Sutton : 8th June 2007 at 17:21.
