What other rebreathers are people here using for extended cave dives?
I'm not doing particularly long cave dives on my rebreather - 2 hr max. This is mainly limited by a) lack of need b) logistics of OC bailout. The reason for making a rebreather for cave diving is so that I could rod off to France for a week or two without taking a compressor. I don't like diving backmounts at all so it was natural to go for a sidemounted configuration.

I am interested to know if anyone is using dual or even triplicate CCR in caves, if so, interested in feedback regarding configurations and mindset towards moving away from open circuit staged bailout tanks.
Olivier Isler was using triple SCR's in the 80's. The EKPP and others have been diving double RB80's or similiar for a while. There was the Twinspiration in use in the Pearse Resurgance and of course Rick Stanton and John Volanthen using backmounted rigs plus side or chestmounted "homebuilds".
