Or the fact that currently ONLY discplined divers dive mCCR and if we had thousands like on eCCR we would probably see more than the one fatality that we have had...
Says Stuart who has a COPIS head
as well as his Shearwater head!
so, which points can we agree on, for diving recreational limits:
1. mCCR's are more field servicable and are a viable option for recreational divers, especially those who put reliability above ease of use?
2. That true redundant mCCR back up system makes any rebreather more reliable, and is highly recommended for traveling?
3. While saying that mCCR's are safer is inherently misleading, it appears that driving manually is a good habit that instills being engaged more consistently with the one's rebreather, regardless of type?
4. If diving eCCR, taking steps to counter the tendency of being lulled into complacency is especially critical?
