This is a Buddy Inspiration Closed-Circuit Rebreather. The picture was taken just now inside my room.
Among the benefits of using rebreathers are: cheaper cocktail gas, longer bottom time, less or no decompression stops needed, deeper diving depths.
Among the dangers: oxygen toxicity due to hyperoxia, hypoxia, anoxia, hypercapnia, caustic burns to face, mouth, lungs and stomach if unit is flooded.
The Inspiration is also known in the Rebreather world, among others, as the YBOD (Yellow Box Of Death).
I’m diving this thing soon.
