What you are really asking is the "optimum" method, or safest method, which would probably be a good question for George Irvine---George is quite familiar with the RBC. >One question I have on the Odyssey: > >With the gas inlet block on the technical model, is there any way >to easily prevent the user switching to the wrong gas on a mix dive ? Over >here, a guy died using a switch block for an air/nitrox dive. He ended up >breathing his deco mix (50%) at about 58m due to accidently setting his >switch block to the wrong position at the start of the dive.
