147min plus 30min for pre-breath and surface swims, Well to me that is nearly 3 hrs of use.

As AP say after 140mins of use be shallower than 20m!!! I have a temp stick on my vision inspo and think its a great way of seeing how the scrubber bed is working but not for extendind scrubber life at depth.

i presume the 177mins of use was not all on the same day, so could the fact that the sorb had been used before dryed out then re-used again some time later have anything to do with it.

P.S i personly would not be swiming about in 22m on a scrubber with nearly 3hrs on it after multi-days of use. A deco hang at 6m on a fresh scrubber that day on a 3hr trimix dive is different, as the scrubber is not working hard in the shalows. And the sorb has not dryed out in between days.
