Heres some better pics after anodizing and tidying up.

You can just see the BMCL on the pic taken from the front

Mike,

You could have just modified the Dolphin scrubber to add the MAV...

Looks very nice, BTW.

Re: Twin CCR for deep cave exploration

Mike you might want to reduce the volume on the BMCL's a bit by tywraping the outer edges of the top together, the adv will keep them too full as the tee pieces will sit to high off your shoulders

Dave,

This is a modified DT BMCL so Mike could close the entire edge along the CL if he wishes. I already explained to him about keeping it MLV.

Re: Twin CCR for deep cave exploration

Hi Doc.
Take care because there is alwais a "BEER" too close to your rebreather
Anyway, looks great. I will be waiting for your Pool Test pictures and explanations.

Thumbs up Re: Twin CCR for deep cave exploration

I do think this is the way ahead, although I bet that lot weighs a ton.

Funny how other nations are way ahead of us when it comes to using twin RBs, or even triple. I think a secondary Rebreather is the definitive solution for the deep stuff. Would love to see pictures of it in action. (Or would I have to join some funny club to see them? )
