It just so happens the Rubbermaid 3.2 cup / 760ml bowl fits the Bubble Magus Curve 5 lid perfectly! A simply 3/8" nipple attached feeding the CO2 scrubber and wham-o, we have a rebreather!

I live in Oregon so it's usually about 10-15 degrees colder in the house than the tank water which creates condensation in the rebreather line. I am trying to keep this from swamping my CO2 scrubber media by installing a water trap in the rebreather line. An empty Planters peanut container works great for this!

How has this affected your media consumption. Did you have to silicone the edges for a seal so that the air would slip around the sides?

I was going to but the below attachment but honestly..i could print one on my own for this p;rice.
