Mike goes through the new Dive Talk Go

[Capt Jim Wyatt]

Solid state sensors transmitting PO2s to the handset wirelessly!!
Very Cool.

The sidemounted lungs... Would they get caught up in sidemounted dil/bailouts?

Wonder if they fill a lot at one end, sort of bulge out at the top?

Lovely to see new designs. Kind of reminded me of the Lungfish.

This is an interesting design. I would prefer a twinset on my back. I'm curious as to how much sorb (and therefore max dive times), as well as how to set up with a bunch of bailout.

Or could this potentially be a convenient bailout rebreather as well?

The ease of travel is a real plus.

Iirc it's somewhere around 4lbs.

Aimed more for the rec and light tec crowds.

Woody mentioned 3 lb in the comments.

Sub'd to see where this ...goes.

That's a cool unit but I am not seeing where the innovation is; did I miss something?

You mean that wrap around your torso? Kiss Spirit and Kiss Sidewinder have them. I have the Spirit.

How does it stay tight to your sides?
Or does the wing hold it down?

I wonder what happens when you flip on your back.

On the Spirit/Sidewinder, the counterlungs fasten in front (plastic buckle).

Not much, it breathes about the same in any position

According to Woody it works fine with sidemount cylinders. Also ~3lbs of sorb so unlikely to be used for big explorations.
