All new Golem Vario BOVs have Draeger valves. The standard Golem BOVs can not be retrofitted with the Draegers as the diameter is different.

So you can in theory dive an unmodified IDA71 in a club; in practice, I'd like to see the face of the club owner!

I've dived in club with my IDA 71 and Castoro C96 (both mofied) without any problem. It depend of club owner. Just to choose the right guy.

Two years ago a friend and me have put a Golem BOV (old model) on our rEvo.
First feeling we both have is a... decrease of WOB !
After that, Paul have made some mesure and found WOB was increased. So, feeling an reality not alway the same...
