i did, read the whole post. But heres a snippet:-

The reason for switching it off, is to stop any ADV leak causing a problem. Also allows you to maintain min loop better/easyer when off gassing like mad into the loop for the 1st 20-30min of monster deco @ 6m with no possible way for the ADV to fire adding Low po2 gas to the loop causing big swings in PO2 when the loop is already all over the place for a bit when off gassing from big dives. Also means from 6m up and surface swims back to the ladder, climbing back up the ladder etc the only thing i put in my loop is 02 or DIL by my own manual actions and not accidentaly by a big suck causing the ADV to fire. And from 9m up the only thing that goes into my loop is pure 02
