Update about my Sentinel.
After 10 hours gambling the unit, I decided to keep it and make a course on it.
It's so far the unit I feel saftiest with, several alarms and a huge electronic package makes it in my opinion the saftiest unit today. Also very efficient scrubber is according test datas the champion on the market.
Negative points: his weight from +- 40 KG dive ready needs in my crashed neopren suit even 10 KG lead, wich is quite alot. But not sooo much more than with Ouroboros...
Also VR technology was over taken from Avon Rubber, which leads that lots of owners wants to get rid of it and decreases the prices on second hand market dramatically.
Luckily a new CCR compy named VMS for Vobster Marine Systems made deal with Avon to service, spare parts service and even building of new units, see the light in March 2014.

Here after a -42M dive in Hemmoor January 2014. Unit runs perfectly and is a dream to dive.

Sentinel ECCR

My new unit purchased very cheap in "new condition" and factory service. Serial N° 142 without optocom.

First impression: what a complicate english machine, but after dissasemble & reassemble it a few times I'm not scared anymore. It's quite easy to handle. Dived it last year in Switzerland with Nadir Qarta, so I know that WOB is good. Will report more when I get the time to dive it.

Technical datas:

Weight without tanks ready to travel: 30KG
Weight complete ready to dive with lead: 40KG
Scrubber time: 185' at 40m and 160' at 100m with 2.2 KG Sofnolime (best of market today 2013)
Tanks 2x 2L
Trimix deco
HUD and secondary PPO2 display

An interesting computer in case you want it "stand alone", means without O2 sensor connection. Good for any serious Eccr like MEG, Inspo or other units without deco computer. Or simply as back up. I like the robust finish, de OLED display and the small case without any buttons.

Ouroboros test diving in Switzerland Mai 2012

Finaly I managed to test this mystical unit. I was amazed. Yes it's big and heavy but not heavier then other units dive ready. The trim in water was excellent, the work of breathing just amazing. Electronic package is a dream, needs a little bit training when not used to VR3 or VRX dive computers. Anyway, the HUD is the best one I was given to try so far.
The unit needs also alot of care and is not as easy to pack as my SF-2 or other units like MEG, Sentinel, MK6 or I guess inspo.

Here a pic before going in the beautiful Laggo Maggiore. Thanks to Nadir Qarta from Zero Emissions Switzerland. Cheers!

Wreck VIS Croatia

Hope to dive there one day!

This is the rebreather made in Belgium from Paul Raymakers. Surely a force to be reckon with.
Unit is compact, light and easy to set up. One day I must try it.

The Ouroboros ECCR

This seems to be the CCR for deep diving with best of work of breathing on the market. A heavy unit +- 40 Kg dive ready, but best electronics available including head up display, and triple redundancy PPO2 monitoring.
I will test dive this unit in 2012 and I'm very courious. Price new is 10000GBP. Second hand units could be found from 3750 € in good condition!
I buyed this unit for 3700 € in 2012. After 20 hours I can say: this is the absolute! Best WOB, good trim, amazing computer system and active alarms.
Really avantgarde in 2003 when it was launchend and a pleasure to dive with. Negative is just the travel weight.

Unit is not in production anymore, second hand can easily be found from 3500€ - 5000€

Hemmoor September 2011

September 2011. With a my pal Martin from Tecme spending a great vacation in Germany. Also testing his home made rebreather called "the stroke". A great unit the Mccr KISS style, well mancrafted and easy to fit and dive. Unfortunately this unit will never be lauched in the commercial way.
