What the thread found

• The Artemis DV Pro uses an arm with dual-parallel-action design paired with gas-filled canisters for load balancing
• Interchangeable canister sets accommodate different payload ranges: light (11-17.6 lbs), medium (17.6-23.4 lbs), and heavy (22-28.7 lbs)
• The combined weight of the Artemis DV Pro arm and vest assembly reaches approximately 20 pounds
• The arm incorporates green rubber components inside that may create more friction than necessary

Depends on

• Sources conflict on whether the suspension uses springs, gas canisters, or both
• The magazine review may have contained errors or misprints about the actual mechanism
• The observation about friction from rubber components is based on personal testing from over 15 years ago
• Design details vary between what was shown at trade shows and what appears in manufacturer documentation
