Darlene,
Awesome Job…. have some green!
I like the H-valve running from the O2 tank and allowing you to shut down either valve.
Isolating that Solenoid is very… nice.

With the addition of the oxygen sensors for the electronics and the Explorer does it detract a lot from your counterlung volume?

Thank you for sharing- I am curious what’s next on your Hobby list?

Happy diving, Andrew

The Drager CLs seem pretty big, certainly way bigger than I need.

Before I changed the orifice in the kiss valve, it would bleed O2 into the cls faster than I could metabolise it and as a result, the cls slowly expanded untill they reached the limit imposed by where I had set the velcro flaps before the OPV would vent.

I's assume Drager sized the CLs anticipating the original oxygage, and John's 3cell holder is only a few more cc's of displacement, so it's not really noticable.

Next on the hobby list: ... How about an over the shoulder exhale CL with T piece and water trap?
