scrubber moisture

Questions for the knowledgeable:

How much water do the various scrubber media produce. Is it a simple link between moisture produced and CO2 scrubbed? Does it vary with temperature? Does anyone have figures?

Also, has anyone ever measured the % humidity in a loop during a dive?
I know human exhalant is always about 6% Humidity. The scrubber will add to this, and temperature of the loop surfaces will affect condensation.

Seems to me better control of loop humidity may make o2 sensors more dependable.

Thanks for your thoughts,
Jason
