Subject: re: Oxygen sensors
Aside from the problem that these sensors have to be too hot to work for
SCUBA air....

Lawrence Leong notes that while Porsche sells a $190 O2 sensor that is
identical to a $30 Alfa sensor (Bosch Motronic), you should
be advised that good ol' Ford has a 3-wire O2 sensor that's identical
to both the Euro-car sensors, but costs way less than $30.

You can get them at Pep Boys for even less than the Ford dealer asks.

I can see it now -- start a BIG fire, stick the O2 sensor in the fire,
and open up the enriched-O2 bottle at the fire to measure its
oxygen content.  Then go scuba diving as your boat burns to the waterline.

Obligatory post-AOW course level dive content: this poster admits
to an air dive to 155 feet without a bottom timer and without a planned deco
stop.
Flame THAT.
