Only one. Apparently he spent £4500 on it when new.

I have one and it is now converted to MCCR with a Hydrogom valve.
The total conversion from the 100ST to the MCCR cost me about £500 so accounting for the original purchase price of (£2895 +VAT = total £3400) £3400.

I think that the owner/seller is being a bit optimistic but who knows if it has only done 8 dives it is essential new except for the training dives.

I would probably sell my Submatix for £4400 in its converted state with all the little extras that I have added.
Extras:
Flow stop on bailout reg.
Padded back for Harness/wing.
Extra D rings on wing.
Additional closure devices for lid.
Uwatec Oxy2 in inhale hose linked to Uwatec Air Z O2
P-port connector (port and plug) for second O2 monitoring computer.

This is still under his original purchase price. Can't see where he got that from!

BTW: I have an Inspiration Classic which I use as my primary Rebreather but the converted Submatix is a much lighter unit - even lighter and more compact than an Evolution.

Thanks guys for the references to the webpages,

So am I basically right in thinking the submatix is lighter weight and more compact than comparable draeger SCRs hence the elevated price - 'Designer Label'

Submatix vs Dolphin
like
Alfa Romeo vs Mondeo?

Now down to £2500 quid. About the same price as a brand new dolphin at retail.
Hmm, let me think

.

This seems a suitable smiley.
