Apollo Bio-Filter, no more dry mouth?

Has anyone had experiance with this new "humidifier" for your reg. http://www.apollosportsusa.com/Produ.../Biofilter.htm. Apparently the air from the tank has like .01% humidity, thus causing the dry mouth and in some cases dehydration which leads to post diving headaches. I've had that and it sucks. This device is supposed to add between 30% - 70% humidity in the air making for a more comfortable dive.

So here's my question? Is it worth it? has anyone of you used it before? I am hesistant to purchase something that could complicate my dive if it fails. How reliable is it? Just throwing this out there.

i've never tried this but it sure could be a great thing if it actualy worked, i always end up with a very dry mouth and a nasty taste

it's true that the dry mouth can be a real problem, it's about time that someone decides to try and do something about it. I'd be interested in knowing if it works well too?
