Rebreather World - View Single Post - Experiences with the ALIBOX and a Backplate

mrs vid and i both have aliboxes and use steel (me) or ali (mrs vid) backplates.

the boxes are a treat for uk diving. we use travel frames for holidays overseas

we both dive a mixture of oc and cc - the backplates get switched from unit to cylinders and back.

we use plates rather then putting the harness straight onto the box, to add sufficient weight to avoid a weightbelt - now that we're moving to larger 5L cylinders on the box, that may not be a requirement - time to investigate during the summer
