I met a guy on the IndieGoGo abuse team the other day and asked him about the gills. He unironically replied with "do you think it's impossible that a company wouldn't be able to do this?" and "if you don't like it, don't pledge" I told him he'd be responsible for the man on his death bed in the hospital because he trusted these fuckers to water out of lungs.

their entire concept is LOX cylinders jammed into motorcycle grips and micropores. And before they got called out it was just the micropores part. and still people are giving them money

Any kind of breathing air stuff is Serious Business because bad air (like wrong mix, etc) isn't something the human body really gives you warnings about. It's like we evolved with the assumption that air is a known good and haven't got any good mechanism to detect otherwise. Bad air is deadly but doesn't smell funny or anything, etc.

surebet posted:jfc the comment responses on the triton are something Hi Oded, thank you for the support, so for the gases it is oxygen that you will breathe in, we going to deliver your Triton with a safety strap we are still developing it and we will release the images of it when it is done, as more accessories that makes Triton easier to handle will come with time, right now all of our focus is to finalizing Triton so we can start to deliver it in time, one of our main task to do is the solution to have the liquid oxygen on a aircraft, Have a great day

It would rely on filtering out the dissolved oxygen; make them think about the volume of water it would have to process to let a human breathe comfortably during exercise, and how much little air tanks could contribute.
