Dave, how did the WOB compare to the Boris?
How did you find the difficulty level for routine maintenance items?
Did you notice any difference while diving due to the single counter-lung?
Hi Marvin,
Perceived WOB was outstanding, the over pressure dump valve works very well too and is user adjustable, very good.
Routine maintenance is not complicated at all.
No difference at all with the single lung, didn't even notice it, Rich did a deliberate flood-recovery exercise, removed the DSV deliberately, opened it let a good lot of water enter then went upright and flushed pretty much all of the water straight out, he checked the unit immediately upon surfacing and there was very little water in it.
So that's a good thing too, much like the flood recovery capability on the Megalodon, handy to know that it is possible.
Cheers,
Dave.
