How regular? - a couple of times per month How useful? - They work, they are gas efficient etc, etc, etc.(you've heard it all before!) They are better than OC for some things, as good as OC for others and not appropriate for some others. The question as to wether I dive it in preferance is difficult (for the Drager at least) since it can't really help me for deep wreck diving (apart from it being used on deco), it's not much use for wearing whilst teaching folks(since you need to be wearing the gear that they are - certainly on 'technical' stuff - hate that word!). What it does allow is a weekends self sufficient diving. Hell, I'm waffling on again....hope this was the kind of info you were looking for. Regards Chris Hellas e-mail - chris@de*.de*.co*.uk*
