Yeah, they could have said 1 tank is good for 10 minutes bottom time.

I guess I do need to take the average diver into account, but, doing the math, I could spend about 40-50 minutes at 100 feet (not taking into account nitrogen loading of course)

Not a bad rate, but that's probably in warm water with a skin on. I can always dream though. Wait, no skin, I forgot.

yup, warm water, board shorts and a rash guard...

average .40 sac and many of those .40 and better dives are with students (in and of itself is much more stressful)
