Actually we do....
He brought the tank ( the 02 ) thinking it was the air filled ... and doubles he used from Canada with his family on vacation..FACT!
the tank was filled with 98 % as per Jim Wyatt......Fact
So there is the concrete evidence and the Facts........
Now I have had enough of...
Rebreathers are different, My evolution RB the first stage IP for oxygen (02) is set at 7.5 -8 and the Dil is set at 9-9.5. Your talking a whole different system and set up from OC to CC in that regard.

Agree...well said!
It wasn't something he would normally do...No!. Carlos had many dedicated bottles. Some of us use bottles for different mixes. Carlos had dove the Andrea Doria the previous week and was unable to use all his mixed gases and stages. From what we gathered he had an empty 02 bottle so he used it...
The bottled was labelled with a MOD 20 sticker. Carlos insisted it was just air. He had many tanks, and used one and filled it with air at home. Other than that MOD sticker there was no verification on the contents mix or date. Yes his computer was set to air as the planned to started that...
The bigger picture here is simple... Firstly Carlos, filled his tanks at home and I know he would have checked them. The thing here is he didnt label the tank, having many simular tanks as he did he grabbed the wrong one while packing up his vehicle for holidays.
Secondly when asked about...
I haven't been here in years nor updated my profile..I am merely here to say a few words and it's one of the hardest things that I've ever had to write.
I never thought I would see the day come where I would see my best friends death being discussed on a forum. I Have known Carlos almost 4...
I say...ask those divers in the video how many dives they have before blaming the gear. Back plates take some getting used to. These divers could be just using the set up for the first couple dives? The BP/W need to be set up, then there is the weighting, tested and likely adjusted a few...
The scarey thing I find, is an Instructor taking you in an area as deep as 300 feet, while you have no experience in doubles. Just think for a minute! had you had any failure being equipment or just diver error thats a hell of a drop and in my opinion and a very big risk. The deepest I dove...
I purchased the Icon HD computer under the impression the air integration would have been here spring of 2010 as indicated by Mares. Well it's October and still nothing? I have tried to search for contact for Mares regarding the matter. The website doesnt say much about it. Does anyone know...
I own a set and I dive Cold water in Canada all year round. I have never had any problems, and when everyones regs were free flowing during my ice course, they worked flawlessly. I use my primary on a seven foot hose, without a heat exchanger it is still the best reg ever. The hoses are a...
I was quoted around the 80- 90 foot range. It was about 5 years ago he did the dive and he was a begginer then and hadn't been back since. I myself don't know much about the lake still in the research part, howevere I do know Big bay we hit 85 feet. The site I have been told is two beaches...
If your going integrated why not just keep it , wear it...use as a back up...I have a Cobra II integreated and the gekko and I wear them both. One goes you always got the other for ascending safety stops and info. If yor AI goes you slap on your pressure gauge and still have a computer...
