Not during the stress test. The object here is get the firefighter used to doing heavy physical labor while if full gear w/ SCBA. Later, when they go through the maze, the masks are blacked out.

When I went through, I didn't know how to control my air, it last about 5 min. Now we were using 30 min bottles. By the time we were trained on everything and were ready for the burn building, my air would last from 15 to 20 min depending on my day. When I was blacked out, I think I did use more air than usual, but it wasn't enough to cause me not to complete the test.

They do it till they run completely out of air. The test is timed, so it gives them a good idea of how long they can go on a "45-minute" bottle and how much time they have once the low pressure alarm goes off.
