If you don't do any pool work in those courses I seriously question your judgement as an instructor.....
That stuff is getting expensive. Looks like for a dive to 150’, we should aim for something like 25/25 then. END of 102’ and PPO2 of 1.4 at max depth. Still a lot of $$$, but worthwhile to avoid a “mush brain” or having no memories of the dive afterwards.I’m OK with an END of 100ft. My shop doesn’t bank standard mixes. It’s all custom fills. So getting fills for a shallower END is a waste of money, IMO. My shop is currently charging $3/cft. My instructor calculated that a fill with 20% helium in my HP80 doubles would run $90 just for the helium.

Practice with the gear you dive with always no matter what , because when it goes wrong you want to be able to make it right ASAP.
It is available as a standalone two day course eg TDI basic and advanced nitrox, decompression procedures, entry level and advanced trimix courses with instructor Mark PowellI'd love to be able to swap my DP for helitrox. Wish I had known better when originally certified. Mist of my dives are 130-160', with no intentions of going past that.
Any reason helitrox can't be a theory and planning course like nitrox for already existing deco procedures divers?
