    Compressor questions, splash vs oil pump lubrication, RPM

    Hi abnfrog, I will follow up with Jordair. The questions I ask are not meant to bust anyone's balls, but to get a better understanding. What would be the recommended compressor for CB-ing nitrox and trimix? With good support in Canada? The other option would be a booster, but I'm attempting to...

    Compressor questions, splash vs oil pump lubrication, RPM

    Hi tbone1004, perhaps i was unclear in my post, I was looking at slowing down an Oceanus to the 1500rpm is range to get similar air delivery as the J2, with a slower rotation and the benefits of an oil pump. I wouldn't slow down a J2 as filling times would get much longer. I'm curious to see...

    Compressor questions, splash vs oil pump lubrication, RPM

    Hello, I'm looking at getting a compressor (new) and have it narrowed down to the Junior 2 and Oceanus. The high RPM of the smaller compressors seems concerning to me, and slowing down the Oceanus can get a similar cfm than the J2. I dive trimix, and would like to be able to send nitrox...

    Accidents. Resuscitation. AED. Should AED be mandatory on diving boats?

    I don't believe the evidence bears this out. There have been many studies looking at OHCA (out of hospital cardiac arrests) and changes in outcomes with epi, nothing points strongly one way or another. Epi may lead to higher ROSC (return of spontaneous circulation) but poorer neurologically...

    thanks, always good to add new words to the vocabulary Having a chamber, along with one of the top physicians in the field onsite certainly expands one's options, unfortunately that isn't realistic for most of us. I think the interest in IWR is driven by those who don't have easy access to...

    My thoughts on the matter: - There isn't much hard data that I can find on divers getting recompressed within ~5min of symptom onset (i hope DDM can confirm or deny this). Early recompression is within 90min in some studies. - There seems to be anecdotal data of early recompression working (such...

    I have never heard this version of zebras before, the only versions i've heard have been based on the one Kevrumbo stated below. We agree that there is a potential for misdiagnosis, but the problem of uncertainty is always present in anything involving biology, the variables are so great we...

    Hi DDM, I preface this by stating that i'm a clinican, but not in hyperbarics or environmental medicine. In the case of more deco vs treating DCI: where do we draw the line, and does drawing the line really matter (I will ignore "professional relationships" for the purposes of this conversation...

    Sola 1200 won't turn on

    I had the same issue with my two GoBe+, they layed unused for about 7 months without recharging (I am aware of the L+M recommendations, but life ect.). Anyways, went to charge them and couldn't get anything to happen, tried the rapid touching of the contacts (harder than with the Sola contacts)...
