Oooops.

Well, after the KISS ANDI will take on the Meg,
and their manuals tend to be very good.

I expect the first draft to be finished today.. It will be shown at DEMA.. It will take a few days for Ed and Charlie to review it (then onto Kim for her blessing), then it will be available for sale..

Not to say its "finished", our manuals are always being updated.. now with full color inhouse printing, expect to see lots of regular changes in our manuals.. There is definately stuff I want to add to the KISS manual, but its sufficient for now..

I will be talking (at dema) with Leon as will Ed so the Meg is next on the list...

Where did you get the machined cap for the calibration kit?

Does the machined cap have a vent hole in it? If not does it skew the calibration courtesy of pressure? Or does it vent out the hole the hose passes through because of a loose fit.

Thanks.

One way valve where the hose passes out.

The New version has a hole in the cap to which you attach a long piece of tube.

Had to be like this as the one way vent is now closed up as there was an instance of some one not performing their pre dive checks and cleaning valve and so there was a CO2 by pass.

Thanks Stuart.

Is the hose the same type as the one used for the inlet?

I actually cut my hose in half

so its identical.
