as I understand Alex does not simply want to KISS a eCCR, it is easier to ny a mCCR but instead does want to convert an eCCR into a hybrid such as the rEvoII.
well the problem with building a hybrid breather here is that some eCCRs require a certain IP to be able to work the solenoide, for example the inspo wants an IP for 7.5 bar.
this is pretty low for a mCCR, if you crank the IP up the solenoide might not open anymore as it has to be pushed open against the pressure.
furthermore the gas flow thru the solenoide will cease pretty quickly as well.
So effectively this will hinder your ability to use the inspos first stage for a hybrid.
I don't know how they have solved this in the rEvo II, Paul might be able to share some light with this regards. Howver as i understand you will only be able to use the rEvo hybrid to a certain depth before you have to convert to a pure eCCR.
as i dont know the ip requirements of other eCCRs these might be easier to convert than the inspiration.
I think the real advanteg of the hybrid comes in if you were able to use the mCCr to its max depth and when you go deeper just run it eCCR, and when you ascend let the mCCr kick in again. But as i see this you will need two 1st stages for that.
Paul please correct me if I got the rEvoII's concept wrong.

Why dont you then use a bigger orifice so you get the same flow with a lower ip?
