![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | Re: What do you think Simple method of testing your helium is the "squeek test" take a few breaths and recite something -- if you sound like a munchkin for about 45 seconds you are on the high end of 40-50% helium -- if less than 30 seconds you are in the 35% and less helium ....... (really it works im not kidding ) (i can see grown men going to the garage now with a stopwatch reciting scenes from the Wizard of Ozz Cheers From the above equation party ballons must contain 15% I can usually get to "all the wonderfull things he does" As for O2 content 16% I was driving home from a resterant once took a big inhale recited the Ozz tune and had to pull over a wee bit hypoxic I think. But the kids loved it "Do it again daddy" "Happy birthday" too you is another favorite. |

Your head will notice it though ![]() We use simple rule for marking mixes: If analyzed we mark wih one decimal ----> 20,6 (for O2) If calculated from the fill no decimal ----> 50 (for He) I don´t own a helium analyzer so my labels mostly look like ---> TX16,5/55 etc. That dive seemed to be the one that you should skip ![]() Had a few of those myself. |
