This sounds like a great unit but I've read several references to the "Work Of Breathing" not being so good due to the back mounted position of the counter lungs, especially compared to the over the shoulder type.
This makes sense to me but my question is- how much of an issue is it?
Being currently an OC user I regard the WOB of a regulator as a critical performance indicator right behind relaibility and safety. A regulator that dosen't breath well would be generally regarded as low performance and would not sell well regardless of how reliable it was!
So, is the WOB with a KISS classic an annoyance?
Is it a potential safety issue if you find yourself having to swim against a current for any distance at depth?
PS. I'll try not to ask too many inane questions over the next few months as I try to get a handle on the whole CCR thing- thanks in advance for you help!
