I have read King_Neptunes glowing review of several rebreathers out there; I have read several of the threads here on the board. One of the threads stated something to the effect that using rebreathers "recreationally" is probably not the best use of a rebreather.
1) I guess the question is why not?
2) Furthermore, what are the opinions on recreational rebreathers, say like the Drager line (are there others)?
3) How do they differ from a technical rebreather?
I've been looking but not ready to take the plunge just yet. I see advantages and disadvantages of it and for the type and area that I would be diving I don't know if there is a serious advantage due to water temp (can't really stay down for hours in 38F water you know).
Tanks again all
