50/80 for all dives unless I have a reason to set it lower.
 
what @Beau640 and @stuartv said. 50/80 unless I have a reason to set lower. A lot of times it will be 50/70 which is what I voted for since it mentioned a conservative gf setting, but most of my diving I'm fine with 50/80.

@PfcAJ surprised to see yours up at 60!
 
My last tech instructor trained me on 35/75 and then threw in an additional 3 minutes above the most conservative computer. In essence, a safety stop after meeting 37/75 deco obligations. Does anyone else add additional minuter?

No deep stops here!

My secondary tech computer (Seabear H3) is set to countdown a safety stop after NDL dives. It's not that smart, I guess, so it also counts one off after clearing deco. I think I could change the setup so it did not count off a safety stop at all, but I like it for NDL dives and I don't want to bother changing it back and forth. So, I pretty much always just do the extra 3 minutes at 15 - 20 feet because, well, why not? Can't hurt.

I know it can’t hurt. But if someone were to dive 35/75 and then feel the need to add 3 minutes every time, shouldn’t that person really be looking at something like 35/65 instead?

I’m still amazed that SP acquired then demolished that company. Breathtaking corporate stupidity and mismanagement.
