For Sale: Nearly new Classic KISS #270

Click here for more photos.

This Classic KISS closed Circuit Rebreather, serial # 270,is my baby.

OK, well, it’s my baby’s baby. This unit was purchased new in January of 2007 for my girlfriend (pictured), and used for her IANTD CCR diver course. Although this is my ideal manually controlled closed circuit rebreather, it turns out that the smaller size of the Sport KISS is more suited to my girlfriend's petite 5’2” frame.

That and the fact that our house is overloaded with dive toys as it is, is why I am sadly letting this rebreather go

.

Close looks at the photos obviously indicate very little use on this CCR: less than 700 minutes total logged time. There have been almost no modifications to this unit since it was pulled out of the crate, with the exception of adding the Dive Rite SPG’s. Includes EVERYTHING you need to go diving except tanks, wing, and harness. The included Analytical Industries PSR-11-39-MD sensors (plus a brand new spare!) are fresh and guaranteed through 2008. Although this auction comes with the standard O-ring spares, 2-liter counter lungs, manual, training videos and all necessary tools you see in the photos, the closed circuit diver chick is NOT included.

$4700 plus USPS shipping (anywhere in the world). If you want to see if you can get it for less, I will put it up for auction on Ebay--Wednesday night--if it hasn't sold before that time.

I truly want to do my part to prevent a diving accident, so please don't be offended if I ask you to show me evidence that you are a properly trained closed circuit diver. If you are not yet trained on a closed circuit rebreather, I would be pleased to arrange quality training for you right here in Hawaii.

SOLD. Holy crap that was quick! Sorry, CaverKevin. Dave Cooper beat you by a few seconds! Now I am thinking I could have made a bit more off of this, huh?

All good. Dave, enjoy your KISS. It is being packed up right now...

If you were able to get it in the water without it I'd be amazed.

Mate, my wife is half Sicilian, I don't tell her and she finds out and I am fish food.

No, as soon as she is through the door I am going to tell her.

It was great knowing you all!

Cheers,

Dave Cooper.
