Is it possible to add SurfGF and GF to your SS for multi-level dives?
@EFX Is it possible to add SurfGF and GF to your SS for multi-level dives?
It would be helpful to know how much deco (in minute/hours) is being done in these different categories. For 5 mins of deco kinds of dives I'm not convinced there's going to be any measurable differences in outcomes regardless of GF.
Quite a different story if you are doing 90mins of deco. This is probably especially true for those who have chosen to dive inverted GFs with higher GF lows and lower GFhighs. I don't know of any studies on the effectiveness of 90/75 for instance. If you only have 5 mins of deco then it's probably not measurable. But would be interesting to know if anyone has had TTS of 60+mins with GFs 90/75 (for instance).
For people doing dives with longer TTS, it would also be interesting to know what gas is being used vs what gas is planned with.
That information is already included in the %AoM column. See the DIVE_HELP sheet for an explanation of what the data means.
Just an FYI. I will be posting a major version release which fixes a long-standing problem for deco dives along with other bug fixes. Maybe in about a week. Still testing.
Well I use 50/75, I don't lie about helium %ages or do any dil switches.
TTS are up to about 3-1/2 hours max deco. 60 to 120mins deco is more typical though. Seems to be working out pretty good so far (275 CCR hours over 5 years)
