One thing I remember from watching a video on BUDS (Navy SEAL) training was that if you flood the circuit, the water can react with the chemicals in the unit and create some toxic gasses. Particularly if you remove your mouthpiece and allow water into the system, or as you said, change the pitch of your body so you're not horizontal. Is this something you've heard of?

The chances are if your firing up your rebreather you won't be doing a single tank buddy dive trip. Another point is.

Yeah, for only recreational dives, it’s hard to justify pulling out my rebreather in warm tropical water. Anything cold and long or deco, if I have the choice, it’s cc every time regardless of team comp. However, if we are doing a tec dive, even air dil, I’ll break out my breather in mixed teams, as I stay more hydrated, warmer, no gas switches and have a larger safety margin when we dive an oc plan. Also, for the cost, even at air dil depth, you can put some He in the dil and be sharp ok the dive, which is hard to justify doing on oc when not needed for depth.

If we are to combine two scenarios: Diver 1 out of air Diver 2 malfunction gas In a CC, that for sure creates an issue, but in OC it is more likely to happen. A complete breakdown of a CCR where you cannot stay on the loop and at least run it semi open is hard to come by. In OC, all you need is a freezing first stage and you are both fried (Yes I i exaggerate for effect :) ) In OC, you are both breathing from same first stage if normal rec setup, while a more DIR-setup with twin cylinders you are breathing from separate first stages. This will still cause an issue if one of the stages fails since you have to breath by valve, or share same second stage. In any of the above cases, a CCR is safer since you can use it manually with semi closed at least.

It's not the quality of the equipment it's the wear, assembly and service of the rebreathers. Nobody almost dies using one. Small bubbles leaking from your reg, no worries. A few drops of water in the filter and your breathing acidic air just from worn o-ring. Too much oxygen at 10m or not enough, either way your dead.

Big con of a rebreather: you're trusting a machine to tell you what you're breathing. A fellow diver of mine had a few incidents with his rebreather, one of them being a "surprise" low ppO2 very close to the blackout point.

EddieGuy VH Your friend got complacent. He’s an idiot and should stick to OC. But then again he will probably run out of air someday

Pretty tough to have a low ppo2 sneak up on you, most modern rebreathers have atleast 3 o2 sensors. Millivolts need to be checked prior to diving

Don't become complacent and the computer will only tell you the mix** it's up to the diver to decide what to do about it. ** if unit is maintained and cells are tested properly
