If I ever hit the lotto that is what I would probably do ;-)
It all boils down to money.. N2 can be managed, as we are doing nearly every dive, so to completly eliminate it seems like overkill to me...
I've been experimenting with increased levels of He in my deco gases. I haven't yet got up to a full Heliox mix at my 70' stop but I'm working my way up to it. I'm at 50/25 and have been monitoring the doppler results and the faitgue factors..
