Re:Diver one of sixteen to die using high-tech gear
Furthermore, for the shorter dives you have to do a minimum amount of deco you can't get around - I wouldn't want to do the profile you showed me and do it again the same day after a couple of hours SI.
Once you get into much longer dives in order to properly decompress you need to bring the bottom PPO2 down anyway in order to keep the CNS clock within limits, which also goes for the actual deco stops. The trick becomes to toggle bewteen opening up the O2 window and offgassing in bubble form at lower PPo2's by using the gradient - so what exactly is the benefit of having a CCR in this case?
If you maintain the higher PPO2 constantly you're heading for an oxtox, and if you lower it you get the same result as OC or SCR for that matter.
The benefits with the CCR do lie in the shorter range, where the differences are fairly minimal anyways - again the only major benefit of the CCR lies in terms of gas used, but those whave to outweigh the inherent risks of the unit, which they don't to me - at all...
