Goes to roughly 46m on probably air.
Knows it's not smart to go right up so takes his merry time doing so (thankfully).
Then wonders why his computer stopped telling him he was in deco.
First, have you read the manual?
What were you breathing?
Why did you break the recreational barrier of 40m? For testing purposes?
Please buy books on decompression, but keep them tucked away untill after you get some proper
Thank you for your feedback and concern for safety. Just to clarify, in France, where I come from, the recreational limit for diving on air is actually 60m, so my dive to 43m was within local guidelines.
I was using air for the dive, 2x12liters on air + 2x7liters for the deco at 32% and 40%, and I do have training and familiarity with my Peregrine's manual. Plus, I was accompanied by a well-respected instructor during the dive. I understand that diving beyond 40m can seem risky for you, but in France, it is quiet usual, and with the instructor's guidance, I approached it with caution and a bit of curiosity.
I appreciate the advice on decompression and the reminder to keep learning, that’s why I am here, I already have some resources and plan to get more hands-on training. Safety is definitely a priority for me, and I’ll make sure my future dives reflect that.
Thanks for looking out for fellow divers, for your valuable input, and for your incredibly helpful and considerate response.
