I dived the Inspo CCR on shalow dives (20m max) without bailout because it had a seporate reg plumbed into dill and excelent flood recovery with front mounted counterlungs.

No way would I do this with my KISS.

I have a Golum BOV which breaths lovely but as Dave said above a cuastic coctail could make it unusable which is why i also have a reg on my bailout tin (BOV is conected to bailout tin)

Flood recovery on a KISS is rubbish. A half pint of water can make it unusable.

I have only bailed out once on the KISS and that was in 8m of water but inside a cave. The flood is beleived to be from a small 4mm cut in the mouthpiece. The unit obviously passed pos and neg no problem.
