I am thinking about relenting and getting a wee booster to go with my rebreather, fed up with short Oxygen fills. So who has one of their own? So whats good and bad when it comes to boosters? All feedback welcome.....

Best asking on Rebreatherworld, loads of people there with experience of a good range of models.

I know what you mean, a lot of shops are a bit, er, optimistic (to be kind to them) about their O2 fills, especially if they charge per fill rather than per litre. I get a 15 filled every now and again, decant from that and just accept that it's going to be 100bar fills at some point. I'm not bothered as I carry a little 0.4l bottle of oxygen which is enough for a flush and 60-70min of deco if anything happened (never needed it).

Hi ,
I have a SITEC GB25 booster. I have had it for 2 years with no issues. I drive it from a 50litre filled with air from my small compressor.

The Underpressure boosters are also a nice compact unit...

Cheers guys,

I got a reply back from Mark at Under Pressure today with answers to the questions I had. I think that is where I will be heading.
