![]() Uhhh, has anyone stoped to ask how clean the air is youre breathing as in Have you sent off an air sample? Now I may not be the one to be posting on this topic cause Im sure yall kno a lot more than I do about this sorta stuff. Lets see: sport scuba age 12. re-cert about every 10-15 years for the fun of it. 6 month commercial dive school 198X (DIT) Im also an current licensed Hyperbaric Life support Tech too. Its always handy to know how to operate a recompression chamber and be able to treat presure related injuries. 3 years GOM oilfild diver 5 years harbor diving 1 year Fiji commercial free dive spear fishery Recently 1.5 years as AB on a 4 point dive boat for the the number one dive company in US. Diver air supply hoses (and other components) are made with specific materials to not off gas bad **** when under preasure. Plastic does wierd **** when put under preasure or heat. Unless specifically labled as Diver Air Supply its a crap shoot. IDK Im jsut some dick. Besides I also buy organic vegies too but I guess for tuff guys like Joe and Skip organic petro chemicals in thier lungs dont matter much. As like every dum coon ass says, "hehl braa were all gona die som time. what ya gona do walk around wrapped up in bubble wrap all ur life! " Equally you should also consider the air system's components: washers/ o rings, never sieze/lube on those quick disconnects, hose lube used by chineese hose manufacture. You do remember to blow down your hose before and after every use. Do you cap off each end of your house. There are some nice red plastice "hose caps No. 6 & 8" but duct tape works well keeping spiders and crap from finding its way into your hose. Ya wouldnt want some spider in ur hose to foul that demad stage regulator when ya got ur hosev fould on the prop preventing you from escaping the dark grasp of Neptune Rex. Not to mention the complontents in those ****ty little paint/utility compressors. It jsut aint about "oil less" Id rather breath off a good Quincy (oil) compressor than any of those chineses "oil less" comprssors you guys are using. Just think chinees dog food, baby formula, the lead in coffee cup glaze, and children's toy paint. Good luck boys and breath safely! Bob |
