Hallo everybody, I am new here and I have been trying to find an answer to my question but it seems there is none so I am starting a new thread.While we were doing some training with our local Fire Brigade i asked them to borrow one of their Draeger sets (300 Bar 10L Kevlar bottle and full face mask) to give it a try in our Tower jump 4,5m pool.It went out pretty good except for three things.1-Lots of lead needed6 kg on naked body.2.Distorted perspective (kinda cool , but over longer period crates "Drunken goggles" effect.3.Free flow.Lots of it , worst when facing down.
Now , we dont even use full face masks, however intrigued by that experience i took a standard military gas-mask, took the filter housing out out, removed the mouthpiece from my old MR12 and inserted it instead.Perfect fit!I was eager to try it, so i hit the pool next morning.It was downright perfect except for the damn free-flow!Now, I heard that some regulators are hard to set-up, however I have several and if someone could tell me which one is the most suitable and how to set it up it would me most appreciated, and I would end up with a good full face mask.I have used one rental full face , and this is much more comfortable.Has this been tried before?
Best regards
