And if the scrubbers are almost the same size, why the difference in duration?

EDIT: My post crossed with Beanie's. Difference in weight explains a bit. Presumably scrubber duration is non-linear because you stop when the reaction front reaches the end of the scrubber (and not when all of the scrubber is used)? |
Unit ready to go includes 12kg of lead and two full three-litre tanks.
Scrubber duration is based on the design of the scrubber and what is known as the dwell time. That said the difference in design of the Inspiration scrubber and the evo scrubber escapes me

Dwell time is an issue but the fact is 5 hours out of an inspiration scrubber is common and I expect 3 hours out of an evo to be no problem
