Yes, I know...

And it was meant to be a JOKE!

Alright, never mind what I said above...

Well, the SCR divers are definitely less “active” than the CCR divers (threads/posts are 10% SCR – 90%CCR) :

Type – threads - posts
CCR - 2,122 - 28,612
SCR - 233 - 2,052

enough playing with statistics - back to work now....

Which is interesting, given that there are over 9000 sports SCRs sold in the past 10 years, the vast majority from one company. It says CCRs are still with the nerds

, while SCR users just get on and use them. If anyone is interested, of the 9000+ sold, I believe less than 2K are in regular use.

Kevin,

Kinda having issues with my posts lately ?

What I meant was:

Total APD units on Rebreather World were ~1500 which is probably ~25% of the estimated 6000 sold. (Yes Alex, I recognize that you don't agree with the total APD units sold )
Total Meg units on Rebreather World was 408 which is probably close to 100%, I guess.

No cant see this 6000 estimate of APD units, it’s way too high. Half it to 3000 units be close to about right. If 6000 you would expect Ebay to be awash with them for real, (and since when did the old drogon network members list get bigger?). No reason to assume the drift of non Rebreather World members in one make (ADP) against all RBW members to be so substantially greater than in any other make or model.

What I would suggest is each member update and list there current in hand make/s and model/s (not serial number) bit like a stock take, IMHO the numbers are less.

Yes, I thought that was where you were going. I thought the Meg was over 500 but I don't know. Anyway, if your argument is the first one to 100% gets to rename Rebreather World then ... to my knowledge there is only one K1, so I think we have to become KarlWorld ... or GenesisWorld.

Sorry, I didn't see it ... must be that dry UAE dry sense of humor.

Next time you might want to start with, "A priest, a rabbi, and a Meg owner go into a bar ...". Or, "How many Meg owners does it take to screw in an O2 sensor that will self-destruct and give them a CO2 hit?" Then I might pick it up.

IMHO, the site should still be renamed to "MegWorld" due to disproportional representation of Meg owners...

That was once proposed by an inspo owner who has subsequently purchased a meg http://www.rebreatherworld.com/gener...nstructor.html see post #4

Pretty spot on on the Meg comment since I'm #402

guess all (most) Meg owners are member here!
