    I need a drivers air supply system. So far Simpson is the only company that I have found that sold them and they are not going to have anymore for a minimum of 90 days. The company that had made them for Simpson was wiped out in Katrina. Does anyone know of anyone else that has a smiliar system (tank and regulator) for sale. Simpson has the helmet with the air supply connection but not the tank, regulator and hose.

    Just looked on line at the Simpson site shows to be instock. What does the valve do on top? it shows to be a free flow system. How many passes before it is empty?

    Mike, i dont know if you contacted brad at Nitroradios.com , but they will be selling a new fresh air deal as well. The guy that is making them and selling them through Nitroradios was at the pri show. He said at full flow, it will last 10 minutes. the bottle is smaller than my simpson setup. just some updated info. thanks Andy

    Thanks, i stopped by and talked to them at PRI. I am now told that ADRL is not going to require them. That saves us a bunch of money. Thanks for the help.

    I only crack the valve at night when we reach dew point and use it to stop fogging. Lasts forever- Also carry a large welding bottle of compressed air in the trailer for refilling as some tech guys like to see it over 1/2 full.
