I like...I wonder how long it would be before the oxygen was drained?

SteamWake · 05-10-10, 03:03 PM

I'm assuming it has some sort of air source it would be too easy to just pass out or fall asleep due to co2 build up.

Cool. I want one too

When the canary dies it's time to surface.

Evidently these things have been around for a while and have a pretty big 'following'.

From the looks of the amount of bubbles coming from her, not long to be under. Keep a tank handy.

That's exactly what I thought looking at all that air escaping

The website says the air supply is anywhere from 30 minutes to an hour, depending on the model. They also have space for scuba tanks.

I wonder what it's test depth is?

That's what your snorkel is for.

Jim's snorkel isn't that long.

40 meters for all models. Read the specs, blindman.

It's not really a test depth, since they have a swim-in entry and no hatches. That's as deep as they can go. The bouyancy won't let them go any deeper.

I'll take your word on that, since there are some things I'd rather not know firsthand.

Well have you ever seen a 40m long snorkel attached to someone's mouth?

Or for that matter on a sub? OT what is the longest snorkel on an operating sub these days?
