Hey guys, when they're talking about WOB for BOV's, do you not think they're talking about the WOB with it in CC mode? Forget about the OC reg, as stated, its "sanity breaths" only...

I know from personal experience, the WOB (in Closed Circuit) of the KISS BOV is noticeably higher than most other DSV's...

I would have thought that was what the WOB tests were all about, the work of breathing of the rebreather, not of one part of it in Open Circuit mode.....
