Hydrogen seems to me as an great gas to use as Nitrogen substitute, cheap=
, no narcotic effect and similar to Helium in decompression.
All for one thing, you can only have max 4% Oxygen in the mix or it will =
be  too explosive and might selfcompust.
With only 4% O2 it will make it a very deep mix and probably out of most =
divers alternatives for mixes.
Now I was wondering if you could use some other gas to raise the oxygen p=
ercentage in the mix without making it totaly unsafe to handle and use.
Im not the best when it comes to chemistry but cant you some how bind the=
 H2 molecyles with an other gas?
If anyone have a clue please tell me!

Alexander
