[PSUBS-MAILIST] charcoal filter

Just doing a quick Google I came across this lung powered CO2 
scrubber that has a carbon filter in it as well. The addition of
the carbon filter mustn't restrict the flow too much especially 
as it's a lung powered device.

My reasoning is if there is smoke in the sub, it will get cleaned up first ahead of the Soda Sorb.  If I recall you have a scrubber from Emile?  so the same would apply.  Hank
