Would it be out of place to comment here on Rebreather World about the brown paper bag shenanigans of said test centre?

Within the next two weeks, I will post an extremely interesting article about the VOYAGER unit - how it works and why electronic-CCR are unnecessary. The article will also include some beak-through information about 'Underwater oxygen metabolic consumption and the diver'. This will really be worth reading. Please be patient. PS.

![]() | Steve, One consideration in your choice is the manufacturers depth rating on the SK is 165' which means you won't be able to get anything higher than normoxic as far as certifications. I also look forward to the review of the Voyager.

Since it is clear that the manufacturer has set this as a limit.. You liability insurance would have an out and you would be held holding the ball....Yes, because normoxic rates depth to 200' as opposed to 330' for trimix and Jetsam does set the depth limit of the Sport at 165' so by definition you would'nt be able to get a trimix cert on a SK Regardless of how many sucessful dives and experience you could show, you would be wrong since the manufacturers are the "experts". What is the minimum depth that must be attained for a Normoxic certification according to IANTD??

Joe, if I follow your idea: if Iantd mini depth for Tx cert is more than 165', then it would suggest that a SK diver couldn't get cert Tx on his breather ???Best Philippe |
