So there's absolutely no way to ballpark your deco obligation? 130ft, stayed 5 min past NDL, breathing regular air. All I'm asking for is a ballpark or realistic profile.

Use tables, any tables that have deco info, and you can ball-park the answer immediately,So there's absolutely no way to ballpark your deco obligation? 130ft, stayed 5 min past NDL, breathing regular air. All I'm asking for is a ballpark or realistic profile.
No, you will die unless you are truly an anointed and certified technical diving specialist. End of story.
The computer that I have simply says it'll give me a deco profile. That's it. No indication of how long, how many stops, etc. Does a simple 3 min safety stop at 15ft turn into 60 minutes of deco at multiple levels if you go over your NDL by five minutes at 130? It doesn't give any kind of an idea of what to expect.

I'd like to get a better idea of how the computer will behave should you go past the NDLs. The computer will give you decompression stops, but how long will they be and at what depths and how many stages?
If you go to 130ft but don't go past your NDL, a slow ascent with a 3 minute safety stop at 15ft is enough.
If you go to 130ft but stay, say, 5 minutes longer than the NDL, what would a decompression profile look like on a recreational computer versus a tech computer?
