Re: Which Rebreather and Why??

Hi Everyone,
Ok, this is probably the most abused question from a newbie, but I have to ask it anyway! To anyone reading this, what rebreather do you use, and most importantly - why? Right now I'm leaning towards a Meg, which (at least to my inexperienced mind) appears to be a solid, well tested, used & abused unit. This along with a Draeger Nova FFM appears to be a good "anywhere, anytime, anyplace" system. Any thoughts or comments?
Thanks,
Bear
Everyone thinks their rebreather is the best.. I'll give you my personal feelings on what rigs I like or disliked.. All these units I have either owned or have put a reasonable amount of time on.. (all those with a star I have owned)

*Inspiration Classic - like it
Inspiration vision - ok
*Inspiration with HH - better than like it but less than love it..
Kiss Classic - Like it
*KISS sport - OK
*rEvo - So far I like it
Meg - OK
*Optima better than like it but less than love it..
Infinito - loved it (not available)
*UT-240 - OK (not available)
*Homebuilt (combination of Inspiration, meg, HH and other assorted parts) - Love it


just a few dives so not a great sample..
Prism - Didn't like
MK15 - didn't like
