Honest Azimuth opinion

Well. I'm looking at an Azi as my first Rebreather as it's a piece of piddle to convert to mCCR at a later date if I wanted to. So- what's your honest opinion on the unit? Go on- pull no punches.

If I want to convert to mCCR later then all it needs is:
Blank off a port on the Azi dosing unit.
Fill a cyl with O2 and fix the reg IP or swap for a DS4 and fit a blanking plug.
Add a mass flow and O2 inject doohicky off a KISS or from Tecme and plumb it into the exhale lung.
Fit a 3-sensor holder to the inhale lung from Tecme or John Routley.
Nick someone's PPO2 displays who have recently upgraded a KISS to a Shearwater (yes you know who you are) and re-engineer so they don't fall apart.
Add a DSV if I am feeling keen or alternatively make my own from one of the myriad of decent 2nd stages I have lying around.

I think that's about it. Hopefully I'll end up eventually with a radial scrubbered unit for less than the price of 1/2 a second hand KISS.
