Re: Should I carry bailout??

I would think/hope that 99.9% of the folks on Rebreather World would agree that an independent bailout is a good idea.

A next step consideration is having access to your onboard gasses in OC mode. In general, my thinking is that the Rebreather is the RB is the RB. WOrst case, you need another way home. However, wouldn't it suck to have used up your bailout cylinder and have a half full dil bottle, but no way to use the gas effectively...likewise for oxygen. I think this area of configuration could use some standardization.
