padiscubapro:A surface rebreather is a good choice for those with expected long response times.. Dan supposedly has a new design to replace the REMO, at ANDI we sell the SOR which is a simple surface rebreather that can stretch a small cylinder out quite far.. The scrubber is a disposable cartridge and is about $25 (I dont remember the exact cost).
The SOR is set up to rebreathe most of the gas and is similiar in function of an scr to maintain the highest FO2 possible with good gas efficiency and ease of breathing.
I would really love to get a lot more detailed information on the REMO system. I want to know things like operating temp ranges, scrubber life, what scrubber chemicals are used (LiOH?), real world achievable %O2 delivery numbers, what flow rates one can achieve, a real world range of how long it really can extend a Jumbo D cylinder, etc etc etc.
