You might still have it, I just went with google-fu. Here's a question then, if you can indeed answer it without giving something verboten away: do you guys have to wait for a full muster before setting something like a Halotron or CO2 system off?

Didn't want to edit in case someone is replying. Here is what is linked as the French Navy's answer: http://www.matisec.com/products-services/respiratory-protection/supplied-air-respirators/scba-triplair Still only 60 minute duration, just a slim design and perhaps lighter weight.

No idea what it's like on a warship. And your MSA 4 hour bitty is a closed circuit type BA, not a positive pressure type - just so we are clear. Comparing something with compressed air to another type of chemical oxygen set is apples and bowling balls. Is it possible part of the reasoning...

OK, so the CAF has a minimum of two platforms. Not a show stopper, and certain things are designed and legally bound to interoperability, like cylinders, but still not the wisest of moves. I think that the servicing line of argument is a weak one, at best. If procurement knows what they are...

Really? The major factor wasn't price? Did procurement include a set of training for some maintenance in house? To be clear: MSA and Scott do not have techs present for service, it's farmed out through folks like K&D Pratt, AGI, DBI, etc. along with some other outfits who service their own...

Firehawk is one of the systems I am using. Modular, lightweight, simple. The one and only "failing", if you can call it one, is that most people learn on Scott. So when they have a push to connect FM regulator it only screws them up and they fight with it. The only way that the fringe...

The pack needs to come off to change a cylinder? What edition (year) are the sets? That sounds crazy, to me. Drager enjoyed a swing in popularity in the 90s on the east coast of Canada, with several larger orders of their kit (not sure the subname) But since then, I believe they've been in...

Who in the hell is saying that?

Great, but don't "rest" Stay on top of it, keep improving. Good job.

I meant the Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross score that was written for the series. Those two do a bang up job for films. Great post.

I'm wanting to watch this. Already own the soundtrack, it's brilliant.

Your local MEC, and even the website, will contain loads of info to help you make decisions - no matter which product you set your sights on.

And for those times when you have SFA else to do, fill the Dromedary bag. Cheap-ish, considering, and super packable to get into a site and then have loads of water at the ready.

I use this: https://www.msrgear.com/water/miniworks-ex-microfilter and have zero complaints. It's a little "slow" at about a litre a minute, but whatever. Says the cartridge life is 2000 litres. I've renewed mine in the field, no issues. FWIW

Nope. It's not bias just because you don't like it. Sorry. Not trying to do anything other than point out that you seem to like putting words into others' posts. Maybe I am way off, maybe you just read their posts that way. Either way, you're seeming to get awfully worked up about it. The post...

Maybe you should focus on what you're saying, not what others are maybe trying to say?

Perhaps folks ought to post links when they make such claims - so others don't have to do their digging for them? Grand idea: let's do that! Scott Staff

Here is a bit dated info on imports vs exports. http://www.nrcan.gc.ca/energy/oil-sands/18086

Beats my current Coup-gee-boo-quack Thanks!  :salute:

Gotta haul in the horns on the kids: they've both got prior events booked for the nominated weekend. Oh well, more planning for spring. Perhaps Pollett's with them is in order. Meantime, since the wife now works one of them modified schedules and has that Friday off, we are going to load the...
