They're always looking at shoes, or silly pretty things for the house. Who needs those things when what's truly needed in every household is another cool piece of kit

I think I now understand your project. Good luck with it and please keep us all updated. Maybe a name for your new beast could be Kissimpiration?

Cheers. Ken
Ken,
The other small thing is that the wife dives as well. She won't dive a home built Rebreather, but if I went out and bought one I'd have to buy 2......


And the project name I had kicking about in my head was Kispiration. Although the wife currently refers to it as "that expensive bag of bits".

John,
"Tox Box" was going to be the O2 rebreather so the full CCR would have to be "Tox Box +".
Mind you I guess that having that stenciled accross the back would help concentrate the mind on pre-dive checks. Any one got any large enough letraset?

John,
Now that's just bad! if I was going that far it'd have to be the "Despiration"

I think depending if Diggers got the name or not, it'll be the "Kispiration" or the "Tox Box +"

I think Kisperation is more useful as a declaration of the design, rather than an actual name for the unit.

Also once Stuart has got back and I have some electronics I may need to sit down with you and talk about housings if that's alright.

Regards
Simon A

Yes. I can get it. Let me know what you need printed, and I'll get it for you. Comes as a stick on rubber. Just about anything is possible. Should be at very reasonable £££

Digs.

Digger,
Cheers for the offer. I may have to come back to you later on that as I've got an almost complete pile of rebreather bits and no job after the 25th Feb at the moment!
