I stopped by El Mar yesterday afternoon to waste some time. Anthony told me that El Mar is overhauling its fill station and will be offering trimix early next year. No idea on the cost yet, but they'll be billing per cubic foot of helium and O2.
They're also changing the pricing of nitrox. Supposedly, it will result in lower prices for lean mixes, but raise prices on hotter mixes.
A few years back, El Mar had elected not to pursue the technical market. It appears they're changing. Incidentally, the technical offerings are TDI, not PADI DSAT, which I found interesting since it's a PADI shop.
