Without the loop hoses, the unit measures 21.25 inches (54 cm) in length by 7.25 inches (18.4 cm) in diameter.\u00a0Like all KISS systems the Sidekick is a mechanical rebreather, so there are no electronics controlling the gas addition to the system. Its unique design places both the head and scrubber inside a large single counterlung, which in turn is housed within and protected by a cylindrical shaped stainless frame.<\/p>\n<h3>Sidekick Specifications<\/h3>\n<p><strong>Dimensions<\/strong>: 21.25 inches (54 cm) long by 7.25 inches (18.4 cm) in diameter.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Scrubber Capacity<\/strong>: 5.2 lb (2.4 kg) of Sofnolime 408 grade absorbent (different brands may have different weights).
