Where do folks get their supplies of divesorb ( or your brand)?
What do you use for disinfectant and where do you get it?
Where do you get your lubricant (Molykote 111)?

I expect to know more about the divesorb and if any of the other brands are safe after my training this weekend, But the other supplies and proper alternatives are of interest. I am obviously not looking in the right places so any guidance is appreciated.

Thanks,
 
I use W.R. Grace's Sodasorb 6-12 HP, and most shops around here carry it, too, due to pretty competitive prices. No matter what rebreathers they support. Steam Machines disrtibutes Sodasorb , and they also supply just about everything I need, like Pro Gold and Christolube.

I've been using diluted Betadyne to clean the loop so far, it's what they recommend.

I would ask your local instructor where he gets his Sodasorb. If there is nothing locally for you, I would consider going through Divers Supply (www.diverssupplyinc.net). You can order a 37 pound pail of Sodasorb HP, 5 gallon for $65 plus shipping (the shipping is about $15 to Florida).
