You present a valid point, but hey I'm just an 18 year old who has done his homework on CCR's. What are the accident stats on the Boris? i know the Inspo. is about as safe as walking through Ethipoia with a bag of rice attached to you. The Meg. has a fairly safe record, and The CIS has 4 known incidents, possibly five, so for 10 years of diving that ia a pretty awesome track record. Please respond.
Inspiration has sold many thousands for ten years, Meg has sold many hundreds. Cis has sold what.....30!!! and five deaths!! dont sound like good figures to me but thats beside the point. You should ask yourself can I actually buy a cis mk5p! can I get parts for it? and most important does it have validated testing, at least for scrubber duration and WOB? Boris does, so does the Meg, and so does the inspo.
Bill Stone is a fine engineer and he is about to release the Mk 6 at Dema, why dont you take a look at that? Im told it is suitable for beginners.
just my opinion
