Warm water . . . . about a 0.35 CFM.

the K
 
Generally 0.5-0.6 around here. Lowest ever was 0.4 at Molokini.
 
Cold Canadian water: 0.5 once or twice in the high 0.4's but that's rare.

No clue in warm water, I should find out one day :D
 
0.45cfm Warm, 0.6cfm Cold

Cheers.

you guys are really screwing up the curve. Delia Milliron of 5thd-x wrote a paper called Battlefield calculations in which she says the average SAC rate is .75 cfm.
I was feeling pretty good until I started reading what everyone listed.
 
0.6 to 0.7 in cold water diving dry, I'll find out about warm end of April . . .
 
Reclining on a platform and playing ScubUNO? < 0.3 (but not much less)

Relaxing dive: 0.38 +/- 0.05

(I've had drysuit dives at 0.33, even, when I'm just on a relaxing, stress-free solo dive.)
