    Couldn't you just convert the PSI to cuft for the tank used in the calculation?

    Shirley, you're taking away from the niftiness of the contraption. I'll bring mine to the GEM demo and show you!

    You certainly could do that, however SSI sells the SAC Rate Calculator to Students so they "never" need another calculator to determine SAC. I like that they mandate SAC calculations in OW, I'm just not too fond of the tool they provide to do it.

    If the museum would like it I would be happy to donate the equipment. Just let me know and I can drop it off anytime.

    You know, I don't remember and I haven't looked at it in many years. I'll have to pull it out of the box and look at it.
