Hi,
I am due to go on a weeks liveaboard in the Red Sea soon. I had a similar trip last year and paid to use Nitrox throughout the trip.
Due to the profile of the dives and my own air consumption I never got any extended bottom time benefit from using Nitrox. However, I was told I would have got some benefit from breathing Nitrox in that I would have been less fatigued. We generally dived 3-4 times a day, and I completed all dives during the trip
Also, while we were supposed to get a 32% mix, it never measured much more than 29% when I tested it.
So I am wondering if it is worth paying for Nitrox this time around, or if I just stick to regular air
