Re: Gue debating use of eccr rebreathers?

Looking at this further:

In the most recent dive where they linked Leon Sinks and Wakula, the primary team dive was for 5 hours bottom time at approx 280 ft.

There were several teams doing 4 to 6 hours on the bottom and several hours of deco., I think around 20 hours.

Given they are covering distances of 20,000 feet each way on different dives, there is a need for CCR to be streamlined and breathe easily in almost horizontal position to maintain scooter efficiency.

1. So which current CCR would they likely model their DIRCCR on.

2. Tim suggested Better Deco?, how much quicker would the deco be on CCR. - Trob suggested not much less.

3. Mikel suggested two eCCRs. How much o2 and Dilutent would you use for 6 hours at 280 feet?

Regards
