Sat's back! Welcome back to the Motherland!

He was gone? I figured he just dropped his PC into the sorb or spilled Betadyne on it ... :wacko:

Motherland??? You gotta lay off the Wodka!

In Germany it's Fatherland (so noch much used in the past 50 odd years) and Mothertongue (native language). Do the Russians have a Fathertongue, or do just most fathers have one?

Finally back on land I've been breathing helium for so long I forgot what my voice sounded like.

I need to go to bed for a month or so, I'm starting to feel my age.

Dobre utro, Tovarisch! Most fathers in the Motherland speak in extremely rough tongues!

PWFletcher, what you can do to get C02 monitoring is get an Infinito, coming Evolution or an Inspiration with the coming new scrubber with C02 monitor

Or the current Megalodon, which will give you the temperature in the scrubber (as raw data rather than APD's bar graph).

Or you can just fill and use the scrubber to and within manufacturer guide lines. Some people already dive past those. That's the worry with scrubber monitoring: Some people will exceed scrubber times and believe it's justified to do so because they trust the display will be right. APD includes data download of all kind of parameters, including warnings, depth and run times as well as temps and other stuff. If you exceed the rating time and dive yourself into an accident they'll have proof of your goof ... .

Although staying within tested/recommended scrubber times won't help if you srew up assembling your rig. Diligent pre-dive testing and pre-breathing should take care of that.

That was a long road (literally, from TX to CA twice) ... glad to hear you got through the training.

Get in the holiday spirit and give, Dave, in this case a guy some time to breathe. He just left CA 24hrs ago.
Like that submersible Santa suit of yours, but what happened to the beard ?
