SSI introduce the JJ CCR Rebreather
SSI has announced that the JJ closed-circuit rebreather is now added to the list of rebreather units available for training.
The JJ CCR is built for all types of terrain and can be adapted to handle the most demanding adventures. The environment the JJ CCR was built for demands a rebreather that is simple and sturdy in regard to handling and ruggedness, independent of the situation and operational environment. All of the components of the JJ CCR have been carefully selected and are there for a reason. Each detail has a purpose and every solution can be justified. The versatility of the rebreather makes it adaptable for whatever dive you are planning.
The philosophy behind the JJ CCR is to keep it simple, with robust construction and minimalistic work detail making it easy to handle before, during, and after the dive. The JJ CCR is equipped with state-of-the-art electronics and is ready to fly right out of the box. Fill it with Sofnolime 797 and serious adventures are about to begin.
Features
- Highly robust aluminum housing to which it is possible to secure up to four cylinders (2-12L) using conventional cylinder belts
- User-repackable axial scrubber canister
- Heavy duty stand and an integrated handle
- Back-mounted (over the shoulder) counterlungs
- Redundant power supply—one battery for the controller, one battery for the heads-up display, and two parallel batteries for the solenoid
- Integrated auto-diluent valve

Oyster Diving have recently been given exclusive access to offer scuba diving courses and fun dives at Mercers Lake, a beautiful lake near M25/Gatwick in the UK.
Oyster have just launched their own dive boat ‘The Blue Pear’ to explore various parts of the lake. Divers can glide around the underwater woodland, see lots of fish and decent visibility. Out of the water divers set up in the purpose built kitting up area, unwind in a warm shower, and off-gas in the café & licensed bar.
To celebrate the start of the summer season, AquaSports and Oyster Diving have teamed up to host a Star Wars-themed open day on the 4th May.
Guests will be able to enjoy discounted tasters of various watersports including Stand Up Paddleboarding (SUP), Canoeing and Sailing. Oyster Diving will be joined by Apeks and possibly other dive manufacturers to display their latest products. Demo gear will be available for qualified divers and Oyster’s sales support team will be on hand for customers with any questions.
Divers wishing to get in the water will need to book in via Oyster Diving’s website where you can also choose to hire any equipment. Non-divers and well behaved dogs are very welcome!
As well as the watersports there will also be music, food and a licensed bar. The fun starts at 10am and finishes around 4.30pm.
Please come along, wear your finest Stormtrooper or Princess Leia outfit and enjoy the fun!
