I used new retail prices for all the figures.

Since no one else has yet, I'll tell you - you are not knowledgeable about the revo. There is A big difference between Internet diving and real world diving. How many ccr hours do you have? Go get certified on 3 or 4 units, put 50 hours on each and then come back and talk.

I used to be a huge fan of 4-8 airgas stuff and say the same things you said here. Until we had Paul R test it in his ANSI machine - it turns out 4-8 is much less effective than sofnolme 8-12. I'm not saying it's less safe sorb, but pound for pound it is certianly less efficient. Scientific testing goes much further than personal observations.
