Re: O2 slug

Tom,
The standard for O2 input on the Meg is on the right hand side. On the left hand side, the Meg has a mixed gas bypass (MGB) valve. It is the same valve as the O2 inlet valve. The MGB is used to plug in off-board gas. Many Meg divers move the O2 hose to the MGB for the very reason you state. This then allows the old O2 input to be used as the MGB. The hose is long enough to reach. Point is that on the Meg, you have options - It is your choice - no extra cost!
