Yes I am familiar with Nitrox and it's limits. I was planning on using =
it as a deco gas and it's maximum depth falls into the 140 range but it =
would be a very light mixture that it probably wouldn't be worth using =
it over air. But I did plan on having it as a deco gas.

Thom,
If you are serious about deep diving, pay for the training...don't =
screw around with gases that you know nothing about or you'll become a =
statistic!
Start with a nitrox course. Nitrox is used for deco/travel in shallow =
water, NOT for deep diving. It becomes toxic at depth, just like air.
