Fine shearwater should let us choose which to display. And require us to input tank type if we want rmv.
Everybody is happy heh.

SAC vs RMV, who cares what’s called? I think people love to complicate things and this just creates confusion.
I consume x cf3/min at the surface, it’s what matters, from here I can calculate the consumption at any depth, irregardless what name one may assine to it.
One for pressure and the other for volume just leaves room for error in my opinion.
True but, there's other things that must be set right so what's the difference?Every time the user has to enter something, especially if it is required, the more chance for an error...either because it was entered incorrectly or misunderstood as to what was to be entered. It is a trade-off.
I think that’s what @tursiops said as wel if you read the rest of his post.True but, there's other things that must be set right so what's the difference?
I would like the option.
...or bar per minute.SAC is expressed at PSI per minute
...or surface liters per minute.RMV is expressed in Cubic Feet per minute
Old schoolI just calculate the RMV myself using the provided SAC psi and looking up the rated tank air volume and rated tank max psi.
I then record it in the App under gas notes.
