i read somewhere that sodfonlime gets saturated on a curved bases, ie it all goes pairshaped quickley, not a slow build up, this in mind relying on the colour change is a verry easy way of killing yourself
it will 0nly turn pink right at the end of its life, strict changing of your lime, is the only way to be sure
something else to think about though,
a better question to ask would be, (how long do you all use your lime for??) as you will find most people use it for longer than recomended,
i have a 1.5kilo container and the recomended duration by drager is 70 mins, i will use this for 100 mins without hesitation, drager base there duration times on the extream unfit fatty divers working at 2.5lpm consumption rate
i do however change the lime after every days diving, even if i have only done a 25m bimble, this to me saves any confusion as to how long you have dived the lime
