ISC should be applauded by all divers for having their units tested and publishing the results.
I am surprised at the negative tone of a few posts here.

hm... mixed feelings here again: the results are clearly published in a 'biased' way..
and for people that are familiar with testing, Alex, you know you can 'tweek' tests so that they perform better or worse
simple example: take any unit, give it a big exhale lung, (like you can do on a KISS) run the unit on nealy max lungvolume during the CE test for scrubber performance: you will get far worse results than doing inverse: small exhale, running minimum lung volume...
why do you think the sentinel does publish good scrubber results?? it has no exhale lung :-) (and mark that I wrote publish, not has :-)
(it is clear that in warm water, say > 15°, the scrubber performance is far more linked to the amount of sorb in the scubber, and the dwell time)
