Hello,

I am currently in the process of purchasing a CCR and have been tossing around the issue of onboard vs offboard decompression. I was wondering what people's overall thoughts were on this.

I believe I've settled on not having onboard decompressions and going with a wrist computer to do it. The primary reason is that, as happens from time to time, the rebreather has a problem and I decide to do a dive or two on OC until the Rebreather is fixed.

What are people's thoughts on onboard vs offboard decompression.

If you use onboard deco computers how do you handle situation where you have an OC dive -- or perhaps a dive on another rebreather -- when you're rebreather tanks.

Sincerely,

Paul
