| Diluent Configuration on the Sport KISS By Ben Field Several people asked for some pictures of my Diluent distribution setup on the SportKISS after I described it in a couple of threads on Rebreather World. I'm not claiming its right, clever or good but this is my configuration. |

| Jetsam SNOG Valve Teardown By Ben Field Jetsam SNOG Valve Teardown
By Ben Field
Most people will, I'm sure, be aware of the Jetsam BOV. Maybe even from its early Sherwood regulator days but more likely the second generation model with the infamous Paragon and most recently the Mares Proton 2nd stage.
An anomalous step in this evolution was the SNOG valve (Simplified Non-manipulated Oxygen Gate according to Gordon with a certain wit no doubt,) a direct fit replacement for the 2nd stage on the later DSV's that allowed hands free access to O2 and Dil.
This unique piece of rebreather equipment hasn't received a wide audience, to my knowledge, so I present it here in review/teardown form as a testament to Gordon and Jetsam's pioneering and inventive spirit.
Before I go any further I should point out that the SNOG is NOT available from Jetsam or anywhere else, mine was one of what I gather was a pre-production/prototype batch of limited number and was purchased second hand. Kim informs me Jetsam have no plans to sell the SNOG in the future. |
