>Set the overpressure relief valve for about 5 psi over the intermediate
>pressure of the first stage.

Curt,

Since most first stages run at between 130 and 170 psi, and most lp
hoses have a working pressure of 200 psi, I tend to set the overpressure
relief valve at 200 psi.  This works well with any of my first stages,
and I have had no problems with my drysuit inflator valve at pressures
up to 200 psi.  

This, at least to me, seems like the best all around setting for
the overpressure relief valve.

Any comments????
