I would go on to argue all your dubious conclusions based on pure assumption but I always find it hard to be polite when dealing with 'preachers' and I might get another 'Infraction warning' from stephan like the one i got yesterday for telling it like it is

added: you know what screw it.
The last paragraphs you wrote are BS. WTF are you doing going around implying eccr divers dont monitor, this is why they die and all the rest of you Assumptions. If you think based on your vast rebreather diving experience of 1 year that manual is safer great go for it, but get off the high horse slagging everyone else off and making these assumptions with no basis in fact. The fact is you shoudnt be preaching so loudly or so forcibly - you have only ben diving ccr for less than one year FFS. I spent longer than that running my 1st rebreather manually before I decided there was no benefit. Its fine having an opinion - youve stated it - but wind in back a bit ok?

I also find very regular PO2 monitoring easy.

How difficult is looking at your wrist every couple of minutes, for goodness sakes!

There are lots of things that challenge me as a newbie Rebreather diver but looking at my wrist regularly thankfully isn't one of them.

If you can't manage this simple task, how will you cope when a real crisis comes along?

I'm not suprised DrMike has lost his cool with you.
