    Fair doos.

    You should practice using it.

    But if you are already diving with Nitrox I would suggest you keep Nitrox in your pony. Switiching to a higher ppN2 on ascent doesn't make any sense.

    Just for those Reading this that don't know whats entonox? Also it would be great not to have to keep filling it all the time.

    Oh yeah I had that on the birth of my son. Where can I get some of that? I'll just stay at home breathing it. Do I need to wear my computer? Seriously where can I get me some of that? Do I need an o2 clean?

    Please be trolling if not think about another sport or at least find a different instructor.

    Howard Payne should be able to sort you out. He offers it to the fundamentalists to help them relax. Such a gentleman.

    The only way to make sure you don't have to fill it is to not use it. Which means you're not practicing with it.

    My LDS used to charge 50p to fill a pony with air and £1 for nitrox, so it's not going to break the bank to fill it.

    You need to be able to use it at your maximum depth, so for 35m dives I'd use 32%.

    Did they bank nitrox? If not, why so cheap? It's more of a shag getting an accurate blend in a small cylinder and the time taken blending has to be the major component in the price of a nitrox fill, the O2 costs fuck-all.
