George says:

Viton O-rings in scuba are bullshit, just like "oxygen cleaning".=20

Can you expand on this? Does it apply to higher concentrations of O2 as =
well as the 'normal' (<40% O2) mixtures which most of the agencies say =
you don't need O2 cleaning to use.

I'll come clean, I have an Oceanic Delta Nitrox which I suppose I =
succumbed to glossy advertising when I bought it ( it cost me no more =
than a normal one, but it does have a bright green and yellow front).  =
Oceanic say not to use it for higher than 50%.

1) Can I use it for higher concentrations of O2? It will be dedicated to =
that purpose.
2) How long do I have to keep the Green and Yellow 'Badge of a Stroke' =
front for? ;-)

TIA
Paul
