Feature request - 15 feet last stop

[Texasguy]

Feel like 20 feet and then 10 is limiting. Can we have 15?

Set it to 20 and do it at 15, am I missing something?

The time of total decompression will not be true.

Won't it calculate on the fly?

Pretty sure if you do this you will end up with errors as it will show you have gone shallower than the required depth. If you set for 10 and do it at 15, all will be okay. Only difference to being able to set to 15 is that the TTS shown will be shorter than what will really happen.

Yeah it's been a while and I use metres, I have mine set to 6 and do it at 5 no problems. Does TTS matter at the safety stop stage?

As I recall, once the safety stop timer countdown begins, it will continue as long as you remain between 10' and 20'.

Are you confusing the "Last stop" depth with the safety stop? I admit to being on my first cup of coffee, but the only setting I'm seeing regarding the safety stop is the length of the timer countdown. Remember that the safety stop is not required, not a deco stop, and "time of decompression" is meaningless in this context. I don't normally monitor the TTS, but I would be surprised to see a safety stop included in it.

I presumed he was talking about decompression stops as he said "last stop". It does sound like he means safety stop as there is no way you can do a 6 metre stop at 5 metres without the computer going crazy.

Who said last stop?
I'm pretty sure the OP was talking about the safety stop setting.

As I said, I'm on my first cup of coffee. The only reason I can see for setting the last stop at 20' instead of 10' is to stay below a rough surface. I don't see any reason to want to do it at 15'.
