Extend Air for Inspo

Claudio · 16th September 2006, 06:53

There is someone that is using the INSPO with the Extend Air Cart.?
I need some information:
- Price and availability of the retrofit kit
- Price of EAC (129 $? like those for the O2ptima?)
- opinions with regard to the use on the Inspo, above all with The JM Hammerhead.
Thanks
Claudio

Mark is your man since I believe he dives HH and EA on his YBOD.

I do not use the Hammerhead, but have used our own head/electronics with the EAC in an Inspo cartridge.

Where did you get the EAC price of $129 from? Is this a pack of 4 in the USA?

The retro kits seems to be Ex-stock in Micropore, in that they sent us one a little while ago immediatey we asked. Until then I used a home-built retro to try out EACs with the Inspo.

With the Micropore retro kit made some extra supports to prevent the EAC telescoping in the Inspo can, and fit a different seal. I can send you pictures if you mail me an address.
Cheers,
Alex

Claudio,

EA cartridges work with YBOD using either both the Classic and Hammerhead.

It is a single retrofit kit that supports both.

I know that they will ship to the EU and I would suppect that there may be a distributor. (Not sure about this).

Happy to answer any other questions that you may have.

Thanks Mark
The extend air Web site is much incomplete one, and the on-line store currently is not opened… I doubts that in Italy there is a distributor.
How much have you paid for the retrofit and the EAC? The kit would have to be simpler and less expensive than that one of the Azimuth or the Dolphin, where it is necessary to change the scrubber. On the inspo ours scrubber is maintained with the inner adapters?
What about the duration?

Claudio,

Here are a couple pictures of the YBOD ExtendAir kit.

http://www.rebreatherworld.com/photo...l/si/ExtendAir

As you can see it's just a couple adaptors.

As far as the price of the kit goes I am sure of the pricing at this point.

If you call the number listed on there web site 302.731.4100 ext. 521 they will promptly follow up with you.

If you would prefer PM me your contact information... Including a phone number and I will make sure that it gets to the right people on Monday.
