You are probably closer to CCRB than most (me thinks?) would you know if they are close to correcting the OPV issue. I must say though I have been blessed with a good OPV.....

Probably blessed too... since I never had any issues with the OPV, about 150 hours on the unit.

I think that proper maintenance in a clean environnement should avoid any issues with the OPV. This is not always the case depending on your diving location and conditions, I can easily see the issue for Mike with the travelling and locations he goes to.

CCRB came up with the solution of the hydrophobic membrane to avoid sofnolime ending in the CL, which works well. But you might get other type of crap in the CL, example when you leave the unit open for drying! The mesh might be an idea!
