What is a Rebreather? | SCUBA 101

[@mavhizd]

I don't usually comment on these things, but fill like in this case a commendation is more than warranted: straight to the point, clear explanation with visual cues, not wasting anyone's time with overtaking or tangent topics, just efficiently delivering the message. THANK YOU!

[@BlueWorldplus]

Glad you enjoyed and thanks for commenting!

[@TripeDemo]

that was not straight to the point. the first one minute could be removed and nothing of value would be lost. not sure about the rest, stopped watching after 10% of the video was already just filler

[@chloemelton4814]

“Beneath the Blue HQ” or “Below the Blue HQ” has a nice ring to it!

[@obxclean237]

I think your onto something special but I simply really like just “Blue HQ” or even “HQ Blue”.. it’s catchy, easy, and fun..good job Chloe😊

[@trickedouttech321]

This is the best explanation on a rebreather on KZbin by far,

[@MrBV2U]

“Think tank” very educational channel.

[@BlueWorldplus]

I like that!!

[@harambeexpress]

Jonathan's Deep Blue Loveshak? Great explanation - I'll probably recommend it in the future. The physical props really help a lot. My favourite rebreather explanation video has been the one by Richard Harris (the Thai cave rescue guy) and he starts super simple and slowly moves into more in-depth than most explanations. Even if you know how a rebreather works already you'll probably learn something from that one.

[@BlueWorldplus]

I like that one too. He says "imagine you are breathing into a bag." And I'm thinking...you know...a bag is a pretty easy prop to come up with....

[@aaronwieman8368]

“Please don’t build this and go into your swimming pool…. You will drown” 😂😂😂

[@quadkong5846]

This explanation was awesome! You got straight to the point, didn’t try to make yourself sound like a Harvard graduate, and made the content easy to absorb.

[@BlueWorldplus]

That's my modus operandi!

[@danieldevito6380]

I can't stand that. I'll look up quick gaming answers on KZbin that should take no more than 30 seconds, but every video that pops up is close to 10 minutes.

@@BlueWorldplus as a non-diver, I love this kind of educational stuff.

[@zacsimillion]

Great explanation!

[@arigato22]

Great explanation with illustration of what a rebreather is! I keep hearing the term if watching cave divers' videos and didn't quite know. It's something I would be keen to learn as I gain more dives.

[@davilajeremy]

Thanks for sharing this information

[@serfranklin6022]

Nice one, great simple introduction on how rebreathers work, there's really no clear video around on that. Looking forward more in depth videos on the subject

I have a rebreather just like yours at home. Me and my friends love using it when taking some funny stuff.

[@BlueWorldplus]

[@henrykilkki6693]

2009 was the first introduction to rebreather, ccr course AP Inspiration, Previously I had dived double12L and double18L hogarthian setup.When you can't use your lungs for lift control Silence, gone were the sounds of the open circuit regulator. Bottles fillings "cheapness" compared to 12L or 18L douples using trimix.

[@BlueWorldplus]

No question that a rebreather starts to make a lot of sense with trimix!

[@sammoyers905]

Excellent video on rebreathers. I look forward to the continued series. Also looking forward to meeting and listening to you in Cozumel. And I have to agree with the comment below... SEABASE.... very Conshelf/Sealab-ish. 🙂

[@matt_hoaglund]

Hey Johnathan! Wonder if you still use your Kraken double hose? I’m in the market and heard Bryan, from VDHose passed last year and no longer in production sadly. I’m hoping to find a regulator somewhere out there one day. Thanks for all the videos and love the “plus”Channel.

I sent the email, wondering if it was received. I’m out on the boat and service is spotty.

[@adey1434]

Hope we will have more rescue stores from edd on this channel.

[@kumbackquatsta]

fantastic. on average how much does a rebreather extend your time underwater?

[@mikeyoung8968]

In most cases it is based on the amount of CO2 absorbent in the canisters. Most run a minimum of 4 hours.

[@BlueWorldplus]

We are going to do a follow up video to talk about that! I have four videos planned on "rebreather basics." And I think getting Mike Young to talk about rebreather design, would be awesome!

[@pspi]

Great video very informative. How much of an advantage does a rebreather give you over open circuit? How many more extra minutes will the diver get ?

[@flymol0]

hours

[@pspi]

Very interesting guys, thanks.

[@BlueWorldplus]

We will be covering that in the next episode!! Stay tuned!

@@BlueWorldplus You're undersea lab should be called " the blue dolphin".

[@todivetoday]

This is a very cool demonstration, thank you very much, Jonathan. Hope, you'll go into details, because I am interested in getting one. By the way, why did you pick this particular one? Did you check other models? Thanks

[@mikeyoung8968]

Your rebreather should be based on the type of diving you do. If you are in cold deep water off a rocking boat it would be different than a shallow warm water reef dive.

i dont know nothing about diving but oxygen is important to us well explained

[@ericcregeen-om8jc]

How often do you have to replace the scrubber kitty litter?

[@BlueWorldplus]

As a rule of thumb....a pound of scrubber material lasts about an hour. So, a rebreather with a scubber canister that holds three pounds can go three hours, then you replace the material. Those numbers are kind of worst case though...a big guy working hard makes more CO2 than a small guy not working that hard. Real world tests have shown that the average diver gets more like 90 minutes per pound, but it varies from person to person.

[@mikeyoung8968]

Jonathan you can come to the KISS factory to shoot your in depth version. I have lots of proper props!!!

How deep can you use a rebreather before you need a different breathe gas mixture?

[@BlueWorldplus]

Well, that depends on many factors, but as a general rule, its the same as open circuit. With more depth comes complications from too much nitrogen.

[@dtt3426]

a rebreather allows you to stay under water longer. as you dive at depth your body builds up nitrogen. at what optimal depth should a rebreather be used to get the longest dive time without going into decompression limits.

[@BlueWorldplus]

That is a great topic to discuss in another video!

[@elaineb7065]

Blue Shark Tank??? Bakana, my sharky, says shark should be in it somewhere... Interesting seeing the chemical note about the sorb too. Looks quite basic (alkaline, not simple), which makes sense as CO2 dissolved is mildly acidic. Plus used sorb might make baking powder... (do not touch that stuff with your bare hands btw because NaOH in solid form is very ouch!!!)

[@BlueWorldplus]

Back in the day, I had a friend who spread the used sorb on his lawn once a year. If you have acidic soil, it's just the thing.
