Re: Recompression Chamber Out of Date

2 ATA would be of value. These chambers don't go to 2 ATA. They go to 2 or 4 PSI, about 5 or 10 feet, which is probobly of little benefit. These are not hyperbaric chambers they are modified Gamow bags, which are used for acute mountain sickness, NOT decompression sickness
The specific chamber in question is a hyperbaric one.. Its good (when in test) to 6ata..

That being said it still couldnt be legally used in the US..
