Yes, you are correct... but.... First, using air dil at 50 meters is not advisable... Most training agencies state that the PO2 of your dil shouldn’t be higher than 1.1 bar at maximum depth. That way, one can actually flush done the loop if the gas inside it becomes suspect. Additionally, the...

Umm... a Perdix measures 74mm x 83mm x 39mm... according to Shearwater’s website. Interesting concept - especially, the loading of custom tables. I wish the best of success with this project.

In regards to the nitrox tanks being off board, think about it.... one of the least appealing characteristics of some of the older SCR’s is the twin 7 liter (50 cuft) tanks attached on either side of the scubber.... HEAVY.... as an SCR does need considerably more gas than 3l. A big part of the...

I have to say that I agree with the above. This thread has a lot of potential for educational value. And, I believe that a spirited discussion of various strategies, and their implications for such a dive, or any decompression diving, would add to that value. However, the fact that the proponent...

New price... $5500.00 I’d like to see this move...
