Spare Air NITROX?????

[nimoh]

well in all fairness putting nitrox in the tank doesn't make it more useless

I woulda thunk it was Photoshop. Right?

Normal kit is good for 40% without being O2 clean. I don't see the point in this - unless somebody is going to fill it with mixes in excess of 40% (which is unlikely) or somebody is going to use partial pressure blending (which is also unlikely).

Using the richest possible mix in a redundant gas source makes sense, particularly if you are close to NDLs or may have to omit a safety stop, but on those sorts of dive, the last thing I'd want as a bail-out is a 'one-breath-from-death'. The effect of going onto a leaner mix is not going to throw your deco plan out by much - when you are one your OBFD, there's only one direction you are going.

I'm wondering about the market for "Spare Air Rebreather".... I may have to do crowd-sourcing on the initial venture capitol, but I promise you, if you send me your money early, I guarantee that you will be on the top of the list for this. Can you afford NOT to take this opportunity?

a rebreather is about the only way you can make 3cf of gas count from any reasonable depth... so, not as ridiculous as it sounds?
