Of course it's a good idea to throw in deep stops, but that's irrelevant - Pyle-style deep stops are applied post-model - meaning the model is run, deep stops are added, then the model is re-run. > Tell us what you would do for a 300 ft. > dive for 25 min for 14/50. Glad you asked, but it's moot, because since I went closed-circuit, I only dive Heliox below 150ft, then switch to N2 diluent for deco. But here's what you get for 300 for 25 on 14/50, with, then without deep stops, using unadulterated Buhlmann ZHL16c. This assumes 32%, 50%, and 100% for deco, a 100fpm descent rate, with an on-the fly switch from 50% to mix at 60ft, and an ascent rate of 60fpm up to 100, then 30fpm slowing to 10fpm as you get shallow. In real life, I'd probably skip the 32%, and calculate the intermediate stops for mix.
