Recently saw an item on EBAY - an East German Army Ox Rebreather (no model number given). EBAY Item # 270083762764 The listing gives very little information at all - Seller is from Holland. Have never seen a unit like this before. Anyone know anything about this unit?

Its a simple"throw away" unit. Go to Dave Suttons rebreather pages to learn all about them.

I beg to disagree....while I do not use them anymore, their parts can be found in a number of my systems.

Issues

you need to modify the scrubber for refil
No DSV
WOB is geared for video work not reall effort
Tapered valve...a pain to travel

You can see a lot of stuff on the RGU on my pages

I've had a lot of fun with these guys and have the parts and pieces to rebuild 5, and one is intact.

They certainly ain't a MEG but for an hour and a half on a shallow reef, they can be a lot of fun.
