Anyone planning to post updates of new and exciting ccr/tech gear showing up at DEMA this year? Or is there another thread/forum/facebook group that will have those? It starts soon, and I NEEEEEED to know what I'm going to be spending my next few paychecks on.

scubaboard will have one going later tonight, the individual manufacturers have posted on facebook. One of the coolest things CCR related so far has been the new sidemount DSV from Scubaforce

Cool. Any chance to beg for a link to the scubaboard post, or possibly PM me here or on scubaboard when it goes up?

I was really frustrated last year trying to follow manufacturers on FB, and probably will be this year, too. I forget which manufacturers to check, not all of the ones I follow show up in my feed, and some post on user's groups other than their own page (for example, Dive Xtra's new scooter announcement is in the user's group page, not the MFR's FB page).

Thanks!

I got a picture of "hydroid" a head mounted rebreather. Think Darth Vader. Full face mask (think a full face snorkel mask).
It will never work. To be light enough to be wearable it will float, To be heavy enough to be neutral it will break your neck.
Darth Vader isn't quite right, Dark Helmet from Spaceballs is closer.

Hopefully completely differerent materials, manufacturer and design team than on the SF2!
The makers of the SF2 use a hydroscopic plastic that after a few dives swells enough to make it almost impossible to switch from on to off or from off to on without using an 18" cheater bar. That is why every SF2 diver that I know uses the Golem Gear DSV instead of that useless Scubaforce DSV.

Well, you asked for it...
 
ISC has a sidemount conversion kit for a Meg. Looks very much like a Liberty with a tray containing 2x 2L and a CL bag above it. Supposed to be available for sale in early 2020 as well but no pricing yet.
