Lothar’s modified RG/UF-M
The East German tank rebreather RG-UF-M has been a beloved donor for years to carry out beautiful homebuilder projects. Lothat used the RG/UF-M to build a manually operated (mccr) oxygen rebreather. Below you can see the modifications that lothat performed. Next to the contra lung, Lothar dives with a regular buoyancy compensating vest with an inflator for good buoyancy.
Lothar, thanks for contributing to the homebuilder section of my website!
Therebreathersite was founded by Jan Willem Bech in 1999. After a diving career of many years, he decided to start technical diving in 1999. He immediately noticed that at that time there was almost no website that contained the history of closed breathing systems. The start for the website led to a huge collection that offered about 1,300 pages of information until 2019. In 2019, a fresh start was made with the website now freely available online for everyone. Therebreathersite is a source of information for divers, researchers, technicians and students. I hope you enjoy browsing the content!
