    It finally happened - my CCR tried to kill me

    Not that I am a Human Factors convert (the book about put me to sleep, I started just reading anecdotes for the last half), but sounds like the rEvo might just have a bad design. If it can be assembled incorrectly, it eventually will. Even worse is that this particular failure seems to not be...

    Closed Citizen Titanium Pro Master Eco-Drive Dive Watch

    Would you do $125 shipped? I already have a titanium ecodrive, but at that price I couldn't say no to a diver version.

    Diving Podcast you Should Check Out

    While I do enjoy TGDP podcast, that intro is pretty rough. It's so much louder than the rest of the episode. My suggestions for making the listening experience better: I had skip intro set for 1min, then one time they did a cold open, so now it's set for 5 minutes. The "commercial" for a...

    Light back gas deco

    Are you limited to 18m while solo diving? I.e. ppO2 1.4bar? Otherwise could have ox-tox concerns if you have to deploy your pony at depth.

    RAID Nitrox Certification

    My PADI nitrox card just came in the mail, and one interesting thing I noticed is that it says I'm ISO 11107 certified. I imagine all the other nitrox cards will also, so they meet the same international standards. Same thing for OWD: ISO 24801-2 Not surprisngly, my AOWD doesn't have any ISO...

    Bühlmann ZH-L16 and M-values

    Well I'm thinking he had to use specific solubility like kg/kg, rather than total solubility, for the reasons you point out. Besides, tissue compartments are models. They don't correspond to any actual human flesh 1:1. And this is just to derive the coefficients, not actually to track it in...

    Bühlmann ZH-L16 and M-values

    I just re-read that section [pp. 34 - 36, 2 ed.], and it really seems to me like it has to mean tissue tension. (I also take issue with the way M-value gets thrown around to mean both the 'critical overpressure ratio' and the actual pressure, but I digress.) As you point out, it mentions...

    Lung damage due to Covid 19

    I don't know what the claimed accuracy is, but I have a consumer pulseoximeter that I've used both at rest and after exercise and I seem to have pretty good oxygenation (>95%). I'm planning on doing some quarry dives in May, and based on this and a lack of any other symptoms I feel pretty safe...

    Consensus on Overfilling Tanks?

    I'm terms of just pressure, legal requirements aside, there's the ideal gas law: PV=nRT volume(V), moles(n), and the gas constant (R) all drop out, so pressure is proportional to the absolute temperature (Degrees rankine or Kelvin): P ≈ T To get rankine from Farenheit, add 460. So 130*F (590...
