it is clear that individuals dropping opinions here are commenting on a topic and piece of equipment that they are not totally familiar with.
the new CCR2000 that I saw recently will be selling ~13,000 US base price, with optional redundant display, HUD is an option as well. Also, it is configured with DOT cylinders standard, spheres optional, and ability to run offboard DOT cyls for gas switches or redundancy.
You have obviously not seen the new version of the rig.
two other tidbits....I am aware of 2 commercial diving firms that are using the 2000 with an integrated Superlite17 in place of tethered surface-supplied ops....my understanding and experience in the commercial dive network lead me to believe that this is the growing trend, and the ADC and OSHA are addressing formal stds...I do believe that the 2000 will take this market.
as for Europe..there are over a dozen 2000's out there from an early production run...all working flawlessly.
I think you'd be surprised with the support that the new mfg is proposing to offer...plus its US based...no need to deal with shipping stuff overseas to APD.
the engineering behind the unit is amazing...been in development for 15+ years, adn has the attention of the major players to make it work in the industry....lots of $ behind this product right now. I'm gathering that this is the first time this has come up on this discussion board based on the responses out there. The launch will likely come out of the gates and surprise many.
is all the speculation true...who knows..but a dual-computer controlled CCR with several add-ons for under $15k that is going mainstream will be difficult to beat for any of the competition.
dont disagree that Meg and Prism offer good CCRs....but why havent they grabbed a significant market share???? there is no reason that inspiration be the only major player...especially considering that they are fisher-price. These guys mfg them for 800 bucks....good profit margin, so its clerly a market that has room for competition and good $ to be had...I applaud the folks behind the 2000!
if cis-lunar was so great...why did they go bankrupt after pumping 8-figs into the R & D??? plus several oxidation problems arising.....clearly havent solved everything. It is clear that the next exploration caliber rig is right around the corner, and has enough drive behind it to make it go the distance
