Question Poseidon MK3 with rebreathers

[mr_v]

CCR folks - have you tried running MK3 with rebreathers?

It seems a good, reliable option with good routing opportunities. I am not sure if the lower IP means anything, but if you don't run a BOV of your CC bottles, you should be fine. What am I missing?

Edited to include proper reg names.

AFAIK you would be fine

I dumped my JJ's Apeks US4's immediately and put on Xstreams the year I bought it. Never looked back.
It'll accept whatever IP your solenoid wants.

CCR folks - have you tried running First Stage Xstreams with rebreathers?

Xstream is a second stage.
The MK3 is a vastly superior first stage for CCR use as it has what is quite possibly the only non-leaking OPV on the market. Doesn't work with mCCR's as you can't block the depth compensating function, but if you're on eCCR or for Dil they are absolutely amazing.

Thank you! You're on the mark with the OPVs. My rEvo OPVs seem to be okay after a few years. The cheap ones are basically pain in neck. One lasted 3 dives and boomed overhead. Boomed, not leaked. It was fun.
