The real question to be asked here is...how often do you need to get your lips O2 cleaned in order to use nitrox?

and...can you switch between air and nitrox and still consider your lips O2 cleaned?
or how often should you O2 clean your mask. You are forever in danger of blowing your head clean off if you breath out of your nose on a deco stop.
 
hmmmmmm, lips mask, maybe we need to O2 clean our trachea and lungs as well...
 
Always remember to brush your teeth with Cristo-Lube before diving Nitrox. Tooth fires are almost always fatal. :D
 
So, if I understand this correctly, eating beans before diving with Nitrox can result in a ruined drysuit? :rofl:

Well, yeah, but just think of the awesome underwater flamethrower that you have now become. Of course, I find that my aim is much improved when I belch, and the soot rubs right off of the lenses of my mask.

:11: Okay, before this gets out of hand, I'd like to ask that nobody post any photos of the Warhammer Maneuver...oh, and I with the crowd - there is no reason to O2 clean a regulator if you are only going to be using recreational nitrox mixes, say EAN50 or lower.
