Hi,

I had one of the first of these items from John and Brent. I have to say that it was excellent. It made filling the unit much easier and i could detect no adverse effect on WOB. The fit and finish was good and so was the delivery. I believe John tested this himself! I bought the scrubber assy with the scrims fitted.

I would like to add that i have no links to John or Brent other than through Rebreather World and the stuff i have purchased. ....Saying that if either one of them wants to offer gifts, money and free dive equipment for the support of their products i would be happy to accept.

I suggest a PM to John (Narked@90) or Brent (divetheworld) they are the people responsible for the manufacture and sale of these items.

I think John stopped selling them as I had one of the last sets from him & this thread has reminded me that I have never bothered fitting them !

Actually, it was Dave Thompson who did the initial testing and then me. I've been using them for years and swear by them (personal opinon there).
They are not on the site as items for sale and we didnt intend to make them a commercial item. When we manufactured the scrubber cartridges we had a whole sheet bought in and CNC cut. Some guys have managed to badger us into passing on some.

Theres been a lot of activity on the inspo list regarding these.
We dont intend to debate the pro's and cons of a method of sorb containment that has been used in most commercial and military unit since the inception of rebreathers. I'm sure those of you who are interested can get all the information you require to make an informed decision from places such as Jan Willems site or other.

So, anyway. We've got none left now so it's academic!

ATB for 2008!

Brent.

Now, I'm giving up smoking so if this thread goes the wrong way I'm gonna fck someone up bad.

Brent,

now that is an area you REALLY need a scrim filter for.
Rebreather's are very efficient smoking devices: blow in it once, and you enjoy your fag for up to three hours. Cheapo!! Hell, a whole new market!!! I should patent it!!

Ciao,

Tino.
