Ida-76 as-it-is used as ARO only a little mod (hose for more visibility of gauge)

Ida-71 as mCCR KISS style (working mod)

IDA-59:
One unit is as-it-is, and the second one is modified as follows:
- T-piece in inhale tube containing a ppO2 cell and handset.
- FFM is taken away and substituted with normal mouthpiece.
- Sofnolime instead of O3.
- Filling adapters: 1/4" to DIN, containing Agir SPG's with short HP hose.
- O2 flow increased to support Sofnolime usage.

IDA-59 mCCR. I added a Hydrogom valve and IDA-71 cylinder/regulator for metering O2 and a p-port for adding PPO2 monitoring. All else is stock.

See my article in the RBW library: http://www.rebreatherworld.com/home-...html#post94626

71 "stock", 71 "Franken-Rig", 71 "Franken-Son"

64 (great little rig!)

72

76

AKA-60

KIP-8 (failed project).

And my favorite: The IDA-55 (look it up....)

Interestingly, have had 59's here for years and have never dived one. Jay Harding will remedy that as soon as we get together again.

Now and then I dive these:

IDA-72D (not to be confused with the big IDA-72).

IDA-76

IDA-55

Mostly as O2-Rebreather but I have tired them as MCCR or SCR also.

Also have two KIP-8 fading away by slowly loosing parts for other projects.
