I have a MOD-1 FFM I'd like to use for open and closed circuit diving. I have a few scuba pods for it and I'm wondering if anyone has used the scuba pod for their CCR DSV/BOV? Does the anti water valve get in the way? I'd like to use the readily available scuba pods for my DSV since rebreather pods are so hard to come by for the mod-1. Does anyone have input or experience here?

Have used the scuba pod with a Poseidon - no issues other than had to use a bit of bungee cord to compress the bellows in the pod to get the mouthpiece closer inwards to my mouth - very simple mod to do - and you may not even need to do it.

Which CCR are you using?

Homebuilt super-dolphin eccr. Looking for a Bov/dsv/mav solution. Kirby Morgan has one for the mod-1 specifically but it doesn't have a MAV. I'm looking at the divesoft which has a MAV and BOV in one unit but isn't made for a mod-1 pod...

Very few BOV's are "made" for the Mod-1 OC Port - but most will fit - it will be a case of trying a fit-up with the Divesoft BOV on the Mod-1 port to see if it fits. You might be able to get someone in your local area with a Divesoft BOV together with someone with a Mod-1 pod one day and see if it all works. If it does then then that is good news as the Divesoft BOV with the MAVs is a nice setup.
