We developed an inline adapter which allows a second feed on the Insp manual adds as a matter of fact Brent (Diveworld) posted a pic of it on his site, If he's out and about he could post it again. We have them in stock and ready to go.

Not such a new idea. I did this on my FGG conversion years ago. It worked quite well, except for the occasional freeflow in very cold water.
Take a look at the controls coming over the shoulders here:

Cheers,

Im greatly intersted, but is the automatic diluent flow rate fast enough during fast descent or is it necessary to manual addition, according to the small hose diameter coming from air II ??

Thanks

Marc

There was no ADV, all diluent addition was manual. Manual flow rates were good for fast decents as the internal bore of the hoses was 7 or 8mm, tons of gas flow.

Cheers,
Jason.
