I wish someone would try to design a BM design like the MK-15. Boris comes close, but I am still wondering about the size issue.
All of the "new" Rebreather units are looking just about the same as each other. The only difference is how to add O2, and that's even copying from either the KISS (mCCR) or YBOD (soenoid) per-say.
Take a look at the Rebreather-80-clone market! I have lost track of how many there are out there...
Is the Ouroborus that big? Or do you mean that heavy? From what I see it isn't a monster.
What exactly can you suggest that would make a CCR THAT different. After all all you need is O2, diluent, counterlung(s) and a scrubber (O2 controler/monitor optional
). Maybe Kevin Gurr or Martin Parker should go have a chat with Pininfarina?
Ergonomics has always been an issue with me but I rarely see it high on a designer's list of things to do.
Rebreather-80 clone? You imply they were the first to design that type of rebreather, I believe you are very much mistaken.
