O2 unit

[paolov]

Just got my O2 unit last night !!!!

a 5.7 liter capacity tank with a regulator and cannula.

i would be replacing the cannula with a mask type (those used for nebulizing)

now i may flush the nitro from my system faster after deep dives...... (NOTE : the preceding statement is sooooo much incomplete , so do not make/try to make any safety conclusions from it)

aren't there available O2 cans in sports shops? my instructor uses that. hehe.

 

[paolov]

there are, but i use mine for SCUBA S.I. so i won't deplete the O2 of the resort.

Pao - A DAN pack? That is one of a few items on my scuba wish list. The darn thing is just so expensive.

I saw a O2 set in Mercury drug for less that Php 12k. It comes in its own roller bag, and has a bigger capacity than a DAN unit. Its seems to have been designed
for persons afflicted with things like emphysema. However, I can't see why it can't be adapted for use in Diving emergencies.

... that is if the resort has O2. I wonder how often resorts check their O2 ? Good move on your part Pao...

Ya know, I thik any O2 tank will do. So long as it can supply a nonrebreather mask with enough O2 and have enough capacity to do some actual good.

Try the one in glorietta by Hard Rock Cafe. Then again if you really want to save, and you know what to look for, you can hit those medical supply shops on Rizal Avenue.
