All rebreathers will produce moisture there is no way around that. I never dove a Meg but I have dove several others and the amount other moisture depends on a variety of things i.e temp on water, amount of time breathing on the Rebreather, divers workload, how well the scrubber insulated, ect...

To me the key thing is not that they all generate condensation beacuse they all do - the key thing is where its generated.

On a YBOD its in the head and outlet hose so it gets all over the sensors and screws up the readings - in other designs (like the MK15 series) the sensors stay bone dry and much of the moisture is collected by pads. A big plus on long dives for sure.
