awap:Unfortunately, there are some divers who would look at their (primary) SPG and see they are "low" but decide to continue the dive because they "have a redundant air source". A spare air or pony can make some folks stupid to the point where they continue a dive that they would have otherwise ended.
But I NEVER do that. I always start back up at 500 to 700 PSI -- the deeper the dive, the higher my PSI trigger. I consider my redundant air source as just that -- something I never really plan to use -- so it doesn't affect the way I do my dive profile.
And since I only do NDC diving, deco stops are not an issue.
