Booster

Phil Ennis

OK, second post...... not quite so boring.

While I was away in the Carribean, I nearly bought a Kiss booster, credit card in hand but they cocked up and I didn't get it.............oooohhhh sorry didn't know you actually wanted it. Well I do want it/ one or whatever. Is there anything else on the market I should be looking at? Driven like the kiss by a cylinder, sorry can't remember the name of the booster, mini..me or something.

All ideas gratefully received.

Thanks,

Phil.

Hi Phil,


Check this link, it's very similar to the Jetsam. https://www.tech-blue.com/en-us/dept_30.html

Also see this thread http://www.rebreatherworld.com/t949-.html.

Tech Blue sells the Hydraulics Internationalpump seen below.
He's a board member and will make you a good price.



Stuart's got one from him, too.
There are more pics in the Rebreather Accesories & Parts gallery of both the HI and Jetsam pumps.
Beanie wrote an article about the Jetsam Nano Booster, and Stuart should have.

it's a little bit heavier, the type of valves used are a little more robust, and you can also get a hand pump kit for when you are miles from anywhere without enough drive gas.

It uses ball not reed valves, is a little bigger and can pump faster.

downside is not as light for travel.

If you are thinking of getting one have a word with Chris from tech blue it is who I got mine off and I am VERY happy....I will do a write up this week

Hey that looks a great price for the whip kit! Just a side note the american adapters for O2 and He will not work in the UK (you might want to delete them).

You will need to get a bull nose adapter to fit in the J and then connect to the quick disconnect.

I am guessing you will need a bull nose to a male 1/4 inch NPT (which the quick disconnect will then fit onto) - sub aqua products do these for about £30 I got 2 of them made up with quick disconnects on so I can leave one in the o2 J and one in the He J.

PS It says guage port - does it include a guage?
