That would be ideal, but if my sub was filling with smoke...I would be heading for the surface as hard as it would go. A little OP wouldn't hurt, the hatch would open real easy. :-)

For emergencies,
wouldn’t you use a full-face mask connected to a CO2
scrubber and air filter and pure oxygen, all on
the inhale side...
Compressed scuba air would increase cabin
pressure and make things
uncomfortable...

Brian,
I
don't mean oxygen, I mean regular scuba air. I have
and am sure all
other subs have scuba
breathing apparatus for emergencies like smoke. I
take air from my ballast supply for that
purpose. If your ballast air is
Nitrogen
then you will need an extra tank for emergency breathing.

Yes, my oxygen will be
a separate
tank, or tanks.

Brian,
You
must be planning to have a separate tank for emergency air
for
breathing, in case of fire etc.

I'm planning
on having
3 - 300cu ft air cylinders for
my ballast supply air.
I noticed that if
I get them filled with nitrogen it is
cheaper than getting breathing or industrial air
! That is, until I get my own
compressor. Brian
