[PSUBS-MAILIST] Smoke mask

[James Frankland via Personal_Submersibles]

Hi emile,

Its nothing that complicated.  Its simply a filter.  So no pressure change.

But if you look at the pictures on the left, one of them is a
testimonial from a fireman who tested it in the smoke tower.  Seemed
to hold up well to the test.

I just have the mask and scuba set the same as you and if I did get a
smoke in the cabin, id be heading upwards quickly...

James
