I know how to compute it, but since I have started downloading the information from my AI computer into Scubase, I realize how far off I am. I did a dive yesterday where I did a dive of 33 minutes to a max of 75 feet. I used 1500psi of a 3500psi 120 cuft tank. That works out to a SAC of .47cuft/min.
Because I did not spend the entire dive at 75 feet, my computer shows a SAC of .60 cuft/min. Before I started using this computer, I was showing an average SAC of .45. Since I began using the AI computer, my SAC is up to an average of .56.
Food for thought. If you are figuring your SAC and are getting low numbers, they may not be an accurate reflection of your true gas consumption.
