Rebreather World - View Single Post - How helpful would a CO2 monitor really be?

I suspect that as smaller more compact CO2 monitors that are capable of operating in the mosit environment of a CCR loop become available and reliable, they will become standard issue on CCRs. Even if they are not fool proof, they would certainly be better than no warning. My Inspiration with Vision electronics has all sorts of bells and whistles on it now, but I don't rely on the alarms for 100% security. I have to also rely on how my body feels and use common sense to keep me alive. I suspect that CO2 monitors will eventually assist me in the same way - one of several tools to help me monitor the situation.
