Spectre once bubbled...
I see it very simply. EAN36 @ 96 gives you an EAD of 72. Or 80 feet on the charts. EAN32 gives you an EAD of 78, which is ... 80 feet on the charts.
The advantage I have with being married to 32% is I'm still fine if we have to change our destination and end up on a wreck a little deeper.
Another advantage to 32 is I can calculate the EAD in my head, and don't need to sit down with a calculator to figure out the best mix and EAD for each and every dive.
Please reassure me as well that you do not dive deeper than 100 ft on air or nitrox?!
If you can, then I can live with your EAN32 short cuts.
MHK loves EAN32 as well. He uses the 120 sum for it. I can tell EAN32 is developing a following.
I would ask, "Why not just round to an even EAN30?" but I am sure that would be heresy somewhere.
