Re: the extended air advantage

Tests for interesting reading, interesting for who? Even forgetting the fact that the EAC's are significantly more expensive, are not environmentally friendly and not easier to travel with the duration comparison is simply not true. Silent Diving had a side by side comparison done a year or so ago by an independent lab and the EAC's not only did not perform as well they were lacking to the extent that the adapters are no longer available. I personally have nothing against the EAC's as the company is local, they are a nice idea, and they do make changing scrubber easier but I really resent false hype of advantages. Comparing apples to apples EAC's simply are an easier way to change scrubber that one must pay a high price in a couple of ways over the traditional scrubber types.
