Right, well the question was "can a safety sausage be deployed from depth" and I have one (as you've pointed out) and I do deploy it from depth... :blinking:

My preference is to send it from about 40-50 feet as I know how much air will fill it properly but not too much from there.

I used to have a larger one with an open bottom (it also had an oral inflator) and I did prefer the larger one, but I found most of the time I'd orally inflate that one as well - partly out of habit, and partly because I find it a simpler batch of actions to do that. YMMV.
 
Cheer guys, thought i had wasted my money.:wink:

Wait there is still time left to find out if you wasted your money. If you overinflate it at depth it will pass you on the way down like a popped balloon! :D
