Hi Hank,

Ive got one of Emiles scrubbers.  Holds the sub at 3200 - 3500 and i find
this quite ok.  I did try an experiment (on land with an assistant
watching) where i let CO2 get to 7500 -  10000ppm for about half an hour.
I could tolerate this just, but i wouldnt like it to go any more.
Kind Regards
James
