looks interesting for a shallow water bimbly set. Shame about the CL location, will give a nasty WOB.

hello zak i know what you mean but it doesnt look bad, i got some info on it today i'll paist it on here.....i still dont want one thou!!

..."the history is that I used my Atlantis too long. Some day I started to think about mortifications but the result wasn't very satisfying. Too much tubes around the housing. So I started to design a dolphin adapter together with my friend Peter Braun (www.v4tec.de). You can have a look at this adaptor on his website. Also this kind of solution wasn't what I expected from "my rebreather". I always wanted something like the housings of Draeger FGT or BI. That's why I and another friend started to design the new housing.
When the first edition of this SCR was finished we started thinking about the gas-management.
2 years later the SCR was ready for diving. Since then more than 30 rebreathers were sold. Official sales price is 2700 Euro without tanks. The one on Ebay should bring between 1800 and 2000 Euro. It's the last one of the last production and should be a promotion for the U.S. market. If we get enough feedback we will start producing again. But don't worry, spareparts are always on stock. I use the Ray scrubber together with Sodalime. My runtime is normally 90 minutes. Some of our customers used another pipe to exceed the length of the Ray scrubber.
