Hi Paul !
When you look at the pictures from Jim Bowdens Zacaton Dive,you can
see that he used a similar system in the past.
He connected an old poseidon one stage regulator to the helium-tank and
fed with this lowpressure outlet a normal compressor to fill his
trimix tanks.
Now he is using a different system,but when i spoke to him in birmingham
2 years ago,he said that the old version worked fine as well
