Re: scr bailout from mccr

Now you've described what you've built, my first question is do you have any PPO2 monitoring system? If not then what you've planned to do could be very risky.
If you do have PPO2 monitoring then it's possible to run an SCR on air, but you realy want to use open circuit when you get shallow for both ascent and descent, (I personaly wouldn't try it above 30 feet).
Also you need to be aware that if you run the unit scr on air, you are racking up deco comitment even faster than you would if you were diving air on open circuit.
Stay safe
