Re: What Rebreather?

AFAIK there are 2 units that are available that meet your criteria out of the box, unfortunately neither of them are particularaly travel friendly.
It's either a second hand MK15.x which by reputation are expensive to source and maintain, or a 'Boris which are not the cheapest of rebreathers either.
If you don't mind modifying a unit, a classic KISS can be made to go to depths in excess of 100m.
However if your Buddy is going to be on a Meg, then I'd recomend having a look at his Meg once he gets it, and see if you can live with those OTS counterlungs. That also makes it easier to carry spares between you.
