Re: Picking the right rebreather (for me)

I'm using my stock-COPIS, and this has a IP of about 10-11ish bar.

That means I can safely go to about 90-100m (300-330 feet?) before I have any problems with oxygen not flowing.

If I need to go deeper, I simply add another bottle of O2, with a normal 1. stage (read: a S40 of O2 that also can be used for bailout), and plug this directly in to the lung.
All manually added O2 now comes from this bottle, and the steady flow comes from the internal. This just means I have to press the button more often when very deep.

works for me

I bring plenty of bailout anyways, so the S40 of O2 would have been carried no matter what.
