Re: KISS me

First of all, the manufacturer does not endorse anything.  The canister lid is inscribed with the words "This device is capable of killing you without warning" it is your job as the diver to survive  ;D

With that said there are no "modifications" necessary to dive He.  The unit comes in pieces which you must assemble yourself.  You need to add (at a minimum) backplate/wing, 2 pressure gauges, a few LP port plugs, 3 O2 sensors, and cylinders.  Once you have it assembled it can go to from 270-370 based on theoretical physiology.  All you would need is the "appropriate mix" for diluent.

Going deeper than the aforementioned limits would require further modifications.

As for the training we were at Square yesterday (decent viz 12ft), Perch (<5 ft) this morning...then back to Square.  Thursday and Friday at Wazee  ;D


PS I may let you putz with the unit in the pool but I'm no swinger  >Big Grin

Don't believe the hype!

Re: KISS me

I was wondering that myself.  You said that you have it at home.

If you want to see the unit "in action" I will be out at Wazee this Fri-Sun  >Big Grin
