I'll take that as a compliment (I think).

It was a compliment. The BMCL is very nicely designed and made.

Just come back from the West Coast of Scotland. Unfortunately while the weather was sort of OK in Edinburgh, the wind over a loch just west of Ballachulishtoday was so strong when I stopped the car it blew the petrol cap flap open (BMW, flush fitting cover), and needed two people to shut the car door! Needless to say, water was a bit too choppy to try new kit at the moment.

Next week ...

So it appears BMW doesn't apply SIL4 standards to its petrol caps.....

Ciao,

Tino.

Rebreather World,
I will be making a final run of 6 of these BMCL kits, taking the total number in the world to 20. This is primarily aimed at Rebreather World members. I think I have covered my costs on the first 14, so the final 6 kits will be cost+ (read: stupidly low price). I never intended to make money out of this venture and as such I am pleased that I can finish without being out of pocket. I can now afford to release the last 6 kits for £250+ shipping.

If you want one put your name down. You will get the same quality pack as the others. This will be a first come first served basis, though should anyone pull out (as has been known) then its yours.

There will not be anymore kits produced after this run.

btw - I will not be near a computer for the next 10 days, but I will reply.

Finally after two months of poor viz and sh***y winds, I managed to get in the water with the camera and a tripod. So here is a few pictures of how the BMCL kit is looking under water.

Kind of difficult to shoot pictures of yourself underwater, without ending up looking like a idiot, but here goes
