I've been looking at this product as an additional distress device. Which is not a pyrotecnic.http://www.odeoflares.com/

Subject: Re: [PSUBS-MAILIST] Tools and safety in a subYea. I understand that. Is escaping in a bubble hood or escaping with a pony tank and scuba mask better? I worry about lung overexpansion with the pony tank.Thanks,Scott WatersSent from my U.S. Cellular© Smartphone

The hatch opening on my sub is only 18" so its pretty tight. That's one of the reasons I like the inflatable PFD. Greg  From: "swaters at waters-ks.com" <swaters at waters-ks.com>To: Personal Submersibles General Discussion <personal_submersibles at psubs.org> Sent: Thursday, September 5, 2013 10:23 AMSubject: Re: [PSUBS-MAILIST] Tools and safety in a subIs there some form of escape hood or suit that we could use?

Alec, Scott and Greg -I also have dive masks. For exit and also in case of a cable fire.- If the air horn is of the type with a compressed gas canister, I regard it as dangerous. The gas is often flammable (and if not : toxic)! You can operate an air horn with mid-pressure air from the sub.- An old style BCD jacket with own small bottle an additional dive mask  (picture)  combines a life jacket with a escape hood.-If your LSS is okay for 72 Hours, bring also drinking water , food, playing cards and whiskey.. Regards, Emile Van: Personal_Submersibles [mailto:personal_submersibles-bounces at psubs.org] Namens Smyth, AlecVerzonden: donderdag 5 september 2013 15:08Aan: Personal Submersibles General DiscussionOnderwerp: Re: [PSUBS-MAILIST] Tools and safety in a sub Some ideas… -         Flashlight-         Radio -         Kitchen timers (2)-         Spare fuses-         Spare scrubber blower-         Spare batteries-         Tiny air horn (probably useless, but it’s a Coast Guard requirement and you want them happy) I’ve seen a lot of people put dive masks in their subs too. Gary Boucher used to take along a jar with a rag in a saturated solution of baking soda. The alkaline rag was for wiping down skin in the case of battery explosion. I carried that too originally, but dropped it when I went to AGM batteries. I know a K350 has batteries outside the cabin, but I mention it in case you have a hotel battery inside. Once you have your list, decide what actually needs to go in the sub and what can stay on the boat. I use two big plastic storage boxes, one labeled Surface and the other Sub. Items like the detergent don’t need to go in the sub, you just put that stuff on at the start of the day.   Best, Alec  From: Personal_Submersibles [mailto:personal_submersibles-bounces at psubs.org] On Behalf Of swaters at waters-ks.comSent: Thursday, September 05, 2013 8:23 AMTo: psubsSubject: [PSUBS-MAILIST] Tools and safety in a sub I am putting together a tool box and safety extras in my sub. Here is what I currently have*Needle nose pliers*Crescent Wrench*Screwdriver*Joy dish soap (for anti-fog on veiwports)*2 life jackets *Fire Extinguisher*Spare air*Extra sodasorb With respect to lack of space in a submarine, what else is necessary?  Thanks,Scott Waters
