rebreathers are now obsolete

I have seen a picture describing this- Ah heck here is a link because I refuse to post it.

Prism manufacture known as Steam Machines has talked about making a side slung bailout rebreather- time table is unknown at this time.

Oh man...I was about to fix me some lunch but never mind...That was just sick.

I'm still waiting for a combination rectal air convertor/regulator/rebreather/fusion chamber.

Now thats a good Idea! I like to smell my own farts anyway, and theres probably enough power to even run a scooter. You would have to have a back-up strainer incase you had too much taco bell the night before, and one the the farts had lumps!

OK, I owe you lunch.

I talked to a friend who is even more of a nut about rebreathers than me.

It seems that this is old news.
US Patent office- No. 3,333,583
Dated- Aug 1st 1967
Author- Bruce R. Bodell
Labeled- Artificial Gills.

As stressed by others certain nasty restrictions apply.
Apparently, the infinity for Oxygen in fish systems are a lot better at maintaining and capturing oxygen that cross the gills of the fish.

While an interesting idea- I will ogling my rebreather thoughts because that is sure thing.
Besides we still need bailout at the end of the day.

so, what'll happen when you swim this thing through a hydrogen sulfide layer?

Anyone?

Aside from that and the fact it needs a motor and batteries, there's very little dissolved oxygen in most caves. on the otherhand, a spinning centerfuge could act as a gyroscopic stabilizer, helping to maintain the diver's trim. cuz you know the guy who tries this thing out will need it... think I'll just leave those details for someone else.

folks have paid for antigravity and UFO engine patents too. Priorities, people! I want my flying car first.

This is a crosspost from the rebreather list server. The writer is a chemist.

Shear and utter bullshit!!!!!!!!
The boy is preparing a scam in the hope of hooking "investors".
Oxygen at the surface, where it is in contact with air, and where it
will be in the highest concentration, is at best 12 parts per million (ppm)
Assuming the same solubility for nitrogen, air would be therefore be 60
ppm, at the surface!
His claim of 1.5% at depth translates to 1.5 parts per hundred, about a
factor of 10,000 too high!
Also, fish are cold blooded and use less oxygen.
When we breath, we use a mere fraction of the available oxygen (less
than 10% I think), which is why we can apply CPR by breathing into another person's mouth.
His claim of being able to separate the gases at depth is also absolute
crap.

PS If anyone is going to send this guy money, have them pass me the
money first and I will pass it on for them.

The surface area needed to separate water into the component parts would be too great of an area and the deeper you go the surface area will have to increase. Then there is the byproduct called brine. This has to be scrapped away from the surface to allow filtration (osmosis). Even if electrolyze is used you still end up with these byproducts that have to be gotten rid of.

DAMN MAN! You have taken a pretty fair joke and turned it into something repulsive, disgusting, rude, and socially unacceptable.

GOOD JOB!!!
