Price on radial scrubber for Meg?

rogeringebo · 31st July 2006, 20:26

I know its not out yet but how much do you think it will cost when it will be released to the broad public?
Any clever guess is wellcome!
How much would you pay?

Are we talking about the radial scrubber, or the Cis-Lunar radial scrubber (w/hydrophobic membrane)? I thought that they were going to offer both, but I could be wrong?

At any rate, ISC once told me that the last time the Cis unit was in production it was selling for around $2,500 USD. I don't know that I'd be willing to pay that much for it... But if I could get a 'plain Jane' radial scrubber for a few hundred dollars then I'd probalby be all over that!

I am not interested in the fancy "Cis model"...just a plane radial scrubber.....
I think that is what Cedric used on his deep dive in the Philippines....

Price doesn't matter. Told Leon back in May that I wanted one already. Remember, the COOOOOOOOL factor..........

The price will be reasonable from what Leon was saying.

Seeing that the last couple of "real" cis scrubbers on the market cost that or just below $2500, the quote from ISC seems high. That was in the "low supply/high demand" period when all the cool kids needed a cis scrubber for their megs.

I've been waiting (not so) patiently for ISC to make their promises good on this one for a while...

I was told to expect a figure of $2,500 for the radial, hydrophobic scrubber. Of course that is subject to change before it's released.

Edit for clarity.

There are 4 radial scrubbers out there in the field being manned tested prior to full production, (cedric has #3) this is the 7.5 lb radial without any hydrophobic protection. I have been diving the #2 unit for a bit over a year now and really like it. Its a bit of a chore to pack correctly, but way better then the original Cis, no silly funnel, or cup or towel, only one O ring (stead of 5) no nylon screws to lose

I dont have a price to publish, ISC is still nailing down a production path, the perforated metal used in this is stupid expensive.

here is a pic Curt Bowen took of me and my scrubber at IS05.

webhead · 1st August 2006, 05:53

So correct me if I'm wrong but isn't ISC planning/hoping to do 2 scrubbers - one with the hydrophobic membrane and the one without? The one without being a little bit less than $thousands$ ???

And of course whatever the price is, I'll have to buy it.... it's a Meg part I don't have and must own some day......

just curious what kind of metal is it?
