I just received some snubbers today, so I'll test this theory out and get some solid data. Perhaps a trickle of O2 (assuming it will be enough of a trickle) when using a snubber during normal operation in the shallows is better than a torrent of O2 at depth when the O2 regulator fails without an inline snubber.

On a Schreader valve, what we are discussing here, there is no "torrent" of gas even at 3000 PSI. It's just a basic manual flow.... you can only get gas thru that orifice at sonic velocity....
