Did you also learn about minimum lung volume? using the low setpoint on ascent is not the best way to do it with an ECCR. There are many ccr diver who make very easy ascents using the high setpoint. but I guess it depends on what type of rebreather you dive. I dive an inspiration vision and always leave it on the high setpoint when ascending, in fact I dont change to the low setpoint until I have finished my 6m stop.

been doing it that way for about 15 years without problems

Totally Agree. I have been diving a Classic Inspiration for almost a year now and have no problem keeping it on the high set point when ascending, then I switch after my 6 or 4.5m stop.
