i'm really trying not to get excited about buying yet another rebreather...:sos:
rebreather & monitor costs 2500$ - a cost of good OC rig, so IMHO price is comparable
consumables expenses are not so big: a pack of four CO2 cartridges for 135$, each cartridge is rated for 2.5 hours.
Replacement of four O2 cells will cost you 44$ x4 =174$
Annual service of electronics (calibration of CO2 & Helium sensors, electronics & wiring checks etc.) costs about 130$
