[PSUBS-MAILIST] Manual Scrubber.

[Antoine Delafargue via Personal_Submersibles]

There is a fan inside the scrubber at the base, but it also work without
turning the fan on. We see several advantages in the full manual mode:
power saving, robust in case of power failure, and also better scrubbing.

regards,
Antoine
