FO2 drop and RD

When diving the RB80, how do you account for the % O2 drop in your Ratio deco calculations?

Thanks

I'm not certified for the RB80 but RD works the same on OC vs. the RB80 I believe.

In fact, keeping a high ppO2 is the last thing GUE would advocate, regardless of gear. The drop keeps your lungs happy for O2 spikes from future gas switches.
