Thank you all for taking the time to try and help me out with this. I know i asked for a formula and i thought there would be a simple one ,but the first posters that responded took it into a bunch of math about volume and so forth that i couldnt understand and it got me very frustrated,but thank you so much for trying to help.
Charlie99 explained it to me best where i could somewhat understand it,Thank you again.
Ive spent a lot of money on all this gear and am going to Mexico again in a couple of weeks and wanted to be prepared for about four days of diving but now am very frustrated and seriously yhinking of leaving it all at home and selling it when i get back.
I am very comfortable with my skills that ive learned and feel that i do very well diving, and if left to dive square profiles ,buy the book dives, i would be fine and have no problems. But in the real world i find that everyone dives with a computer, and from my exsp when diving in mexico there is a Divemaster and you are expected to dive with him,and i want that because i am a newbie and like someone helping/guiding me thru the dive, but they are diving a computer and i dont want to play follow the leader if i have no computer.
And this brings me to my dilema, my wife bought me a Mares Puck computer and i cant figure out how to use it, im not a computer guy and cant even figure out how to download or upload or whatever you call it to watch the instruction video on the computer . I tried to figure it out by reading the manual but you have to press this damn button in a certain sequence to get it to do anything in one mode and its got a bazzillion different modes to do this function and that, no way i will remember all that while trying to enjoy a dive, i cant even remember it sitting in the recliner . And then if i did remember it long enough to use it in mexico it will be months before i would use it again and would have to relearn it.
I think i will be selling the whole works soon and going back to freediving but i sure will miss scuba diving.
Where is a good place to show my gear for sale,anyone have a suggestion. Thanks.
