I know this may be a silly question but where are your PO2 displays?

Thom
It's a C2R triple PO2 display commonly called the pendant. It is basically 3 PO2 displays mounted in a VR3 case. It is a $300 upgrade form Jetsam when you order your unit instead of getting the crappy original Jetsam triple displays.

The C2R stands less of a chance of flooding and is easier to calibrate.

Re: My experience on the CK

Patrick, the Shearwater HUD or the $$$ URM can fix the HUD issue.

what kind of display is it?
The DeltaP pO2 monitor, a factory option from Jetsam.
Pretty much the secondary display from the Ouroboros.
Solid triple sensor readout in a single display (and cable/Battery),
but you loose the triple redundancy of the Jetsam setup.

The rest of the Delta P URM (VR3 with triple pO2 readout and
pO2/deco indicating HUD) can also be added, thus providing
the redundant displays.

Re: My experience on the CK

You get the VR3 and the pendant as redundancy with the URM, but sadly because of the way its designed, you get no redundancy between the HUD and the VR3, unlike the Shearwater + HUD.

Re: My experience on the CK

Hello,

It sounds like you and I took the same path. I just finished up on the Classic KISS and, as did you, found it extremely enjoyable to dive. Fast, simple, stable, and unencumbered. A wonderful unit to dive. I just sold the Meg and will be diving the CK for the foreseeable future.

Sincerely,

-p

That doesn't work for everyone :P ...

I had to change the 2L for a 6L!! Now I have a 4L & 6L. It's a little big, but 4L & 4L wasn't quite enough.

Happy diving, and welcome to the world of KISS

Re: My experience on the CK

Hi Patrick, It was a great experience for me too (I'm the other diver in one picture, I was assisting for my CCR instructor level). I learn a lot from Matt. It was very good for me to see how the unit works although I didn't dive it. A lot of fun too. Next week I have a Cave course but after if you are free, let's get some hours in the rebreathers Regards, Victor

Re: My experience on the CK

I got my Classic with the 'boris secondary pendant but found it a bit of a pain as it keeps switching off (it's on a 2minute delay), I know they can up that to about 4mins now which isn't so bad. I changed to the Pursuit after I suffered the VR3 battery cap trouble.

Have lots of fun, I love my Classic but am eyeing up a rEvo at the moment.

Re: My experience on the CK

Great news. It sounds like everything is going to plan I'm currently trying to persuade Mark and Howard to come back and visit, but their wives won't let them!
