That looks a bit on the heavy side, I thought the Sentinel was comparible to APD's Evolution weightwise?

No, I think it is more like the Vision weight-wise approx 32kg or there abouts and I am carrying a load of extra kit along with the unit although I will see about weighing it properly next week during the course.

Are the DSV hoses same as on Boris?

No David they are not, but are available as an option.

Cheers,

Hi Pawel,

The total weight including cylinders etc is 40kg but I would assume cylinders would not normally be taken when travelling so the unit would be about 32kg for flying..

huh?

Same as Boris?????

Thought its supposed to be lighter for travelling (only reason I ordered one)

Hi Mike,

The Sentinel in it's standard configuration with a Stainless Steel Backplate, cylinders and case is about 28 Kg with Sorb & gas about 31Kg going into the water but I would think if weight was a key factor you would strip it down and end up with a unit for travelling at about 22kg assuming you can get cylinders at your destination and change the back plate from a Stainless to a carbon fibre.

The weights I have mentioned previously includes the travel case at about 6Kg but you could carry the BOV loop hoses section and cylinders as hand luggage to get the weight down and it does come with a bag for that purpose but I prefer to carry on my video, PC etc.

Dave, just curious, where did you hear that Boris hoses were available as an option? I was told they have a different bore and are not compatible.

I heard it from the factory.

That's interesting, I heard from Al just two weeks ago they were not compatible.

The Cooper hoses will fit with adaptors, the bore on the Coopers is larger than the standard hoses but I have just spoken to the factory and they confirm what I am saying.

Cheers,

Dave.

Thanks for the pictures Barrie!

Its look like a fine unit with high build quality.

If you have time, is it possibly to take some pictures with Sentinel and your Inspo side by side? So we can compare size, I am most interested how much it builds up from the back.
