I didn't think 36 MPH in a 30 zone was a big deal either, but they bloody nicked me for it.

Surely the rating is there for a reason. And yes, I'm well aware of the conservatism built into these things, but they are bloody awful filled to this level, so why do it. If it's not enough gas for the dive, bigger cylinder or more cylinders would be my approach, rather than overblowing everything. Again, that's just me, I can understand why you do what you do.

Third tank is too much of a PITA, thats all. If I were that concerned about it Id dive two steel 10s and strap lead blocks to the Trimix tin to trim out the Nitrox tin.

250 in my steels is what i have always done. (and worse) but its obviously not to be advised
