Draggs:

You can't go wrong with a Hammerhead Rebreather, I have some experience with a number of units and the Hammerhead will in all likelyhood me the next purchase I make, but i'd like to make several sugestions:

1) When it comes to life support equipment NEVER let money (or lack of it) make decisions for you.
2) Look atfeel and try and dive as many units as possible.
3) There are huge differences in quality of construction so understand them.
4) If anyone is giving you the "used car" sales pitch....just stay away as you would.
5) Its important to understand the difference between the various types of Rebreather's out there

About the hammerhead there's allot to like: great electronics, very well built (if not the best in that category), huge scrubber, very versatile (depth is really not an issue) CMF ability, the buisness that makes them gives new meaning to the term "customer service" they are the best.

The one complaint I have heard (sensor issue) is not as big of a deal as its being made out to be (on THIS unit), but its being handled.

Other units to look at are:
Meg.
Kiss
Revo
Boris

Hope this helps,
