My wife and I are seriously thinking about the scr route so....
Like many of the others I'm going to call you on that.
Nobody seems to stay on SCR. It is just a gas extender, requiring just the right mix and right jets for the depth while a CCR rig is just ready to go and dive on call.
I am part of a BSAC club in Sussex, just up the coast, and we have quite a growing contingent of CCR rebreathers now. SCRs would give us the same problem that carefully optomised Nitrox divers do when the weather means we want to change the dive site while the CCRs are just shrug, switch on and dive.
Buying SCR and then realising that it isn't offering you the advantages you hoped for works out expensive.
