Cis-Lunar Mk6-The "Beginning of a Revolution"
The new Cis-Lunar Mk6 (the word means the space in between the Earth and the Moon) recreational rebreather will be designed so that those new to diving will be able to first learn to dive using this rebreather rather than learning alleged bad habits that don't cross over well to closed circuit well.
The unit will be designed to be fully automatic and extremely easy to use. It's designer, Bill Stone has stated; "And all those tech divers that are out there now... they are going to look down on it and call it a toy. But it will not be a toy. It will be the beginning of the revolution. Eventually, they will start tinkering with it too, because it can fit in your suit case."
The Mark6 is designed for mass production.
Cis-Lunar Mk 6 2 cell validation theory
We have now seen the new Cis-Lunar Mk 6 rebreather and we have to say, we think their system will revolutionize the CCR industry.
And best of all, tech divers, fear not, as although the current rig is designed for the recreational market, Bill Stone and Richard Pyle have personally told us that they would not have gotten involved in the project had there not been a plan for a tech version.
We've all been brought up on 3 cells and voting logic, and the initial presumption is that a 2 cell CCR is useless, but shortly we're going to explain the dynamics behind the revolutionary manner of how the Mk 6 validates a cell that will completely change our thinking, and will render all current cell validation as being outright prehistoric.
There WILL be a tech version using the Mk 5 size/style scrubber, but until we have a chance to sit down and more thoroughly explain how their 4 micro solenoid, constant cell validation technology works, get prepared for some new thinking.
Their ultralight/compact combination DSV/BOV with built in HUD is an engineering marvel. Even their flat panel LCD dual controller/deco computers are a masterpiece in execution.
Sunday right here you will see actual photos of the unit.
