Recreational Pony Bottles, completely unnecessary? Why or why not?

Nor mine.
He use an extremely slow ascent rate so that his min-gas calculation meet his personal desires, not what would be a reasonable ascent rate nor a reasonable min-gas calculation.

Fair enough, present your dive plan for critique.

How much gas is in that pony you keep talking about if you don't add it to the dive plan?

People use anything from 13 to 40 cuft for their ponys (ponies?).

That doesn't answer my question.

1. How do you know what gas is in that pony?
2. How much of said gas is in it?

If you do not add this to your plan and gas strategies.

Are we just assuming it's 3000 PSI of Air?

Nah, this is your thread, you can work it out. Just use reasonable assumptions.

All this was answered in the previous thread that got closed.
1. analyze it
2. SPG
Yes, full, and usually air, unless it is Nitrox as in your back gas. Air is good because you can use it at all recreational depths.

Great, so you would add it to the plan. Thanks for proving my point.

There you go, trying to put words into someone else's mouth again.

OK. I have made my plan, my reg fails for some reason, my buddy is not close and is not paying attention how [Mod edit] is my minimum gas plan going to help. Oh you say but you should not let that happen, well it did.

Direct ascent to the surface. Did you not learn that in open water?

Is checking your SPG's and analyzing gas not a part of your dive plan? It is mine.
