RGBM 100 you are running 100% of the Suunto Reduced Gradient Bubble Model
RGBM 50 is 50% of it, so yes significantly longer sounds about right.

Remember these are theoretical models. The Majority of people who dive a Suunto do say the models are conservative.

The RGBM 100 Model does not guarantee you wont get a bend and neither does the RGBM 50 Model.

Are you in good health? Do you Smoke? Do you exercise often? You may or may not find the RGBM50 model does work for you and you don't get bent or you may find the opposite true, after all its theory.
