I was wondering if tightening or loosening the adjustable airflow knob found on certain regs has any impact on your air consumption rate. Lately I've been thinking that it doesn't impact your consumption rate too much since you you need a certain amount of air to fill your lungs whether your reg breathes easy or hard. But today I was diving with my reg loosened up quite a bit more than last year and my air consumption rate was a lot worse than usual. now this could be due to the fact that I haven't been in the water all winter and I've gotten rusty, but I'm not sure. What do you guys think?
