Jacob, the others are right when they tell you to stick to one set of tables and to understand the parameters they are based on. When I use EAN I consider the following variables:
What is my working depth
What is my contingency depth
How long do I want to be down for
Which mix has the appropriate MOD
What are the other members of my dive party using
The accepted PO2 (by most but not all agencies) for the working portion of the dive is 1.4, with some diving conservatively at 1.2 and some aggressively at 1.6. I choose 1.4 myself.
If you are diving to 80' for example, the mix with a 1.4 equivalent MOD is 40%EAN but if you think you might slip down to 90-100' then a mix of 36% or 32% is a better choice.
I would caution you not to immediately try to extend your bottom time too much with EAN as that puts you at the same risk as pushing the NDL's on air. Before pushing the limits that way you should have your ascent rate/bouyancy skills dialed in and a good understanding of all the ways you can create/mitigate DCS risk.
Lastly, think about what your teammates are going to do. You should all be on the same page or at least willing to dive to limits of the member with the least capacity. For example: If you have EAN 32% and your buddy has air, you will be limited by his air NDL's. Conversely, he will be limited by your MOD.
