But as you ask why I think the HH is copy cat, its a fact that the scrubber, BOV made by Golem were designed for meg users originally and as a few opted for HH an a meg they spotted an opportunity to follow the same module design as the Meg and use the common after market products brought by meg users and put it together as a packaged CCR and it makes perfect business sense. I even thought of adding a HH about 2 years ago to my unit and decided not to as there was to many post from users with electronic issues and I wanted the HUD cable in black not Yellow

Matt,

Just to be clear as it applies to the BOV. It was designed to address a gap in the marketplace for SEVERAL rebreathers. The Meg just happened to be one of them. I know that because I had one of the first Golem BOVs and it came standard with Inspiration threads. No disagreement on the radial scrubber.... I agree with Randy on not liking to get in the "mine bigger than yours".... While the Meg is an excellent RIG. We all agree on the fact that the current Meg electronics are not as feature rich as many others that are out in the market today. This is a significant difference between the rigs and one of the many reasons that there are as many HammerMegs around and potentially as we are hearing APICS/Shearwater Megs again.

Dive Safe...
