Really deep rebreathers

Re:Really deep rebreathers
From what I know, and I'm no expert Tongue, the Inspiration is rated to 330 ft., mostly because the PO2 alarm can implode at deeper depths (which, I've read, is depth tested to 160 meters). This allows water into the electronics... not a good thing. There is an interesting account of this happening at 180 meters on website.

Another limitation of the Inspiration is the scrubber duration... 3 hours. From what I understand, the MK 15.5 has a much longer duration.

Go back to click the 'dive equipment' link. The author lists the advantages (in his opinion) of the MK 15.5 over the other rebreathers.
