gas planning

I recently completed my Mod1 on a Fathom Gemini and have been trying to do a bailout gas plan using the DiveProMe app. For some reason, when I press 'bailout', it isn't calculating open circuit gas consumption from the bottom depth, rather it is calculating it from the 1st stop on the ascent...

I'm researching the calculation of the true gas capacity based on the Z factor and ideal volume (water capacity). I noticed that some calculate the true capacity as: True_Capacity ≈ Ideal_Capacity ÷ Z_Factor(gas & pressure@temperature) - Dive Gear Express and Teach me to dive...

TLDR; Using a non-purpose built AI will kill you if you don't check it for every detail, at which point you should just do it yourself. So I overheard something about using AI (ChatGPT) for planning a dive, and worse, a Tec dive! I thought this went without saying, but please do NOT do this...

Hi, I'm a UK diver (BSAC Dive Leader), and I also do a fair amount of holiday diving in warm waters. So far all my diving has been on single cylinders (12L or 15L), but I'd like to get into slightly more adventurous UK diving (gentle wreck penetration, light deco etc). With this in mind, I'm...

Hi all, Would love to hear feedback on the approach I am envisioning for managing real life multi-level long deco dives on CCR. Below is my approach and a couple of simulated examples to show how it would work in the water. Configuration is CCR with on-board oxygen; 2 AL80 tanks for diluent and...

As I study to get ready for the CCR class, I discovered something that may be obvious to many but was definitely not to me. “Surface intervals are not always the most efficient way to off-gas nitrogen after a dive”. Depending on the blend, there is an optimal depth at which the off-gassing is...

I'm brushing up on my gas planning math in preparation for my next cave diving trip (coming up in two weeks!). To save some space in my Wet Notes/not need to calculate consumption de novo for each dive, I made a chart of RMV for depths of 20-200ft at SAC rates of 0.4, 0.6, 0.8, 1.0, 1.5, and 2.0...

All, Seeking advice for my first dive to 100m - I'm using iDeco Pro and am planning on using the following gas mixes: 1. Back gas (24L) - (12/52) 2. Deco gas and travel gas (11.1L) - (EAN32) 3. Deco gas (11.1L) - (EAN72) 4. Deco gas (11.1L) - (100% O2) Grateful for any thoughts / comments on...
