Choosing a new Rebreather...

Mikel-Deko · 22nd July 2008, 15:03

Hi there,
I've a little problem and need some help...

First of all i've to say that i've the best rebreather in the world.

It is a Classic inpiration, with a rEvodream with HUD, BMCL (thanks Paul and Pete), JJ-CCR BOV and sidemount kit from Dani (txitxito).

And now i'm thinking about the posibility of changing my Rebreather.

This is my question:
What do you think will be better for some deep 80-100 mtrs dives per year plus about 40/50 dives year in the range of 25/50 mtrs.

Sentinel or Evolution plus or any other option...

Thanks

Mikel

Frankly what's wrong with the rig you have now? Many Classics have been to those depths and beyond.

Go MCCR and relalize you dont need blinking lights ...dodgy solenoids...or to be able to recieve e-mails under water

As above, let cell errors be a thing of the past

Hybred rEvo would be my first choice best of both worlds so you dont need to faf to do the deeper dives.

Yeah... good...

Really, i've been looking to your Rebreather.
I don't like the OTS to much...
Is out there someone diving the Pelagian BMCL?
That can be the right direction...

Thanks
Mikel

Hi!
No I have not heard of anyone diving back mounted CLs on the unit I dive but it should not be too hard to arrange I think.
Personally I dont mind the front mounted CLs on the Pelagian as they dont puff up like other lungs and getting to the d-rings is easy.
The lung is not designed like a bellow like on most others so the expanding gas move furter down the lung instead.

Best of luck what ever road you decide to take..

Cheers
Roger
