Hello mempilot
I'm diving a Meg here in Canada. Mostly quarries in winter time, the St-Lawrence river in summer.
I have two buddies that have Megs. We trained last spring in Florida.
I'll be leaving for Mexico in a month with one of my buddies.

My dive buddy Padipro and I both trained in the springs in N FL as well. Who did your training on the Meg? We trained with Jill Heinerth.
Hello,
how was the training with Jill?
Im looking for a meg instructor in Fl.
Thanks,
Gustavo

Jill Heinerth Meg Training
Jill is top notch. I will use her again in the future, and I have sent many other divers to her over the last year. You can get a hold of her via her website www.rebreatherpro.com, and tell her Eric Stadtmueller sent you.
Hi Eric,
I did my homework ;-) and checked Jill's sites before, and is easy to see She's Top. But I like to know how is a meg course? what you do during the week, lots of classroom? dives? if you like to share your experience... I like Jill also because She shoot video and photos too, and Im a photographer and makes it more interesting.
Thanks,
Gustavo

Yes, but more importantly, Jill has a Cis-Lumar Mk VP!

Gustavo,
I know this thread is a few months old now, but if anyone else reading it is interested in how a CCR is structured then i can share my experience. I was first certified on an Evolution. I did about 8 hours of classroom type stuff and we did 8 dives on the unit. Then, a year later I crossed over to a Meg and that wasnt as intense since CCR fundamentals were already there. That was 2 days, not much classroom mostly diving the unit and learning it. You can really do most of your reading before class, pick up the books and read them a few times. It will make so much more sense later.
Enjoy
I do prefer the Vision electronics, especially the scrubber temp stick. I allows me to get 6-7 hours out of the scrubber when doing recreational profiles.
I have seen the Meg in person repeatedly and the build quality looks really good.

We where in the Miami area and trained with Tom Mount. We really appreciated his teaching.

Tom is a good guy. We dive with him quite a bit.
