Not having a computer i work mine out on my max depth so it's not accurate but i reckon roughly around 15 lpm.

I use 25lpm for gas calcs

Earlier in the year it was between 15 and 18 but since I gave up smoking it's gone up a bit so I voted 20+

It's between 15 and 18 usually but for gas planning calcs I work on 20l/min.
