I've ordered my kits. Just waiting for the money to clear so Paul will ship. It might be of benefit if those who've already installed could post their pics and experiences.

a low WOB kit? The rEvo gets more and more tempting... Paul can you explain the rationale behind a low WOB kit? Is it something that will be added to all rEvos from now on or is it only for specific dives?

the rEvo sold in 2008 has 80% of the kit already installed: only the straight connectors on the breathing hose not, as they influence a bit the nice routing of the hoses over your shoulder, and extra spacers for the lungvolume
they already have the internal grid, and the venting opening

just wait for kit 2, 3, 4... :-)

you can at the end make a rEvo II with a WOB of ... less then 2J/L (EN14143 parameters), but who wants to change so much, extra costs, with little or no improvement in normal diving conditions??

keep an eye on Rebreather World next week :-)

ps: install manual is online, see downloads on our site

Paul,
Can you physically tell a difference in the WOB when you change the 90 degree elbow to a straight on the hose? I like the 90 elbow and the way the hose lays but would be willing to switch if there is a noticeable difference.
