Where to buy

The Divesoft Liberty first hit the market in 2014, since then, the popular CCR unit has undergone some significant changes. As demand for customizable options has grown, so too has the Liberty’s possible configurations. Divesofts CCR Liberty can be ordered in the following configurations: FMCL, BMCL, Sidemount, Light and Heavy.

Liberty has been designed to be a “complete fault-tolerant” unit, meaning that even if one electronic part has an issue, it won’t cause the whole unit to break down. A long battery life, air integration, defective solenoid detection, and in-built GPS are among the other new features.
