Train, Plan and Be Ready
Breathing underwater involves inherent risk. Proper instruction, maintenance, dive planning and emergency preparation are essential.
Get Properly Trained
Divers should receive appropriate training, follow current Brownie’s instructions and stay within the limits of their training, experience and equipment.
Every diver should remain prepared to make an emergency ascent.
Consider Independent Backup Air
For dives beyond a depth at which a diver is personally comfortable making a controlled free-swimming ascent, many experienced divers carry an independent emergency breathing source.
Spare Air kits can be selected in the Safety Bundle or purchased individually.

The OG FAQ
What does every OG include?
Every OG includes your selected compressor and engine, the floating system, intake and flag assembly, standard downline, equipment for two divers, two basic tow belts and one basic mesh gear bag.
Which OG should I choose?
Choose the Briggs & Stratton single head for the lowest starting price, the Honda single head if you prefer Honda power for a primarily two-diver setup, or the Honda dual head for greater airflow and the recommended configuration for four divers.
Can a single-head system support four divers?
Actual results vary with depth, conditions, exertion and each diver’s breathing demand. Four divers on a single-head system are recommended only for light breathing in extremely shallow water. We highly recommend the Honda dual-head configuration for four divers.
How does the Safety Bundle match my configuration?
When you select the Safety Bundle, its quantity and price match the total number of divers in your chosen configuration. A two-diver OG receives two sets, a three-diver OG receives three and a four-diver OG receives four.
What comes in a Basic Add-a-Diver Kit?
Each Basic Add-a-Diver Kit includes an additional divider connection, one 20-foot diver hose, one Brownie’s low-pressure regulator with whip and one basic tow belt.
Does the Spare Air Add-On Kit include a cummerbelt?
No. It includes the 3-cubic-foot Spare Air package and a sleeve designed to attach it to a Brownie’s drop-weight cummerbelt. Cummerbelts are temporarily unavailable and expected back in November.
How long can The OG operate?
Runtime varies with the engine, fuel supply and operating conditions. The gas-powered platform can be refueled to continue operation without waiting for a battery to recharge.
Are replacement parts and service available?
Yes. Replacement parts are available for Brownie’s systems, and Brownie’s service centers can assist with maintenance, troubleshooting and repairs.
