I seem to use around 30 bar out of a 2 litre cylinder for 80m (264') dive.
I think I used about 50 bar for a 105 m (346') dive water temp 4 deg C.
This is with a DUI 200g thinsulate and DUI Crusted neoprene dry suit and
thermal underwear.  Twin Steel 12.5s and 10.4 Ali stages.  Wing for
buoyancy, but put a bit more in the suit on the shallow deco stops.
