No hijack at all.

The extra height of the extended scrubber puts it in a position where it could be subject to the rough and tumble of some wreck divers....

Two options come to mind immediately:
1. Bigger tanks

2. Custom cowling, contact yourself at grpservices

Ha ha, lol. I like it. I have to admit that even a nice 2x2 twill carbon would spoil the looks by covering over those scrubbers.
I'd make everything out of carbon if I could polish it and make it shine!

That really is versatile.

this is probably a thread hijack, but a small one. The extra height of the extended scrubber puts it in a position where it could be subject to the rough and tumble of some wreck divers....Not that I would ever condone such squeezing through gaps to get to tink

Is protecting the extended scrubber required or is the construction suitable for such abuse?!?
Not that someone such as me would need scrubbers that last beyond 5hrs but I wouldnt want to scratch them as they do look nice.
Ive just thought of another question, how do the scrubber cartriges seal in the system? I refer to the equivelant of the Inspo's "suicide" 'o' ring which prevents leakage around the side of the scrubber cart. I'm guessing that there are 'o' rings on the lid that do this?
I really should just read your manual or look it up but its so much easier just to ask the guy who makes it!!!
One last question, do you do one in shiny finish

ATB

Brent.

hello brent,

point 1: cover: you're right, but time is needed to do it all :-)

point 2: there are no O-rings at all in the scrubber: you can not compare it with the inspi system: in the rEvo there is a 'sliding' gap between scrubber and housing of +/- 0.3mm: the calculated leak of non-scrubbed gas is less than 0.5%, but even then this is irrellevant, because after the first scrubber, the gas is mixed before it enters the second scrubber, so whatever could have passed the first scrubbers, of that fraction only 0.5% passes the second one... so... no problem at all

the gap in the inspiration without O-ring is far biggern, and there is only one scrubber, so whatever passes that gap, will be inhaled again

regards
paul
