Oceanic RB - anyone know anything
I was in the LDS on Saturday, got nattering and it is said a new Oceanic RB is due to hit the shops, somewaht similar to the one the US Navy has been using developed by Oceanic. No O2 cells, uses gas spectometry (sp?) and monitors CO2 as well as O2, 8 Hr scrubber. Turns itself on when it hits the water (as a backup). Going to retail for about £3500

Anyone else know anything more

Matt

There was something on RBW (post DEMA) saying that the release was delayed, this is the first time I've heard anything giving detail like prices though.

Given the price and spec' quoted I think it will come out shortly after the holy grail is found.

I was told eearly next year, I wonder though, having done a w eb search if its a development of the Phibian, which also had a simialr price tag (10years ago) but didnt come to market I suppose.

i thought there were all sorts of problems with CO2 monitors being sensitive enough to give an alarm before the human body is already reacting.
