You guys must have awesome SAC rates...
Although I fully understand the desire for an increased safety margin and think I understand the point of using nitrox if you're doing three to five dives in one day, I don't really see a huge increase in bottom time if you're doing just a couple of dives in a day. With a couple of hours of SI, the type of profiles I usually dive and my SAC rate (15-16SLM or about .5 cuf in a wetsuit, 16-18 in a drysuit), it's usually gas, not NDL that's limiting my bottom time. And I'm not using an Al80, my standard tank is a 10L 300 bar or a 15L 200 bar.

if nitrox can double your diving time, effectively giving you twice the bang for your buck
Since when does Nitrox double your dive time.........I never get the memos anymore.
