Ambient QFL: How many membranes needed?

I've used one for years, my one uses two membranes, one at the top one at the bottom. You used to be able to get stiff or soft versions but not sure you can any more. There was a problem with sourcing replacement membranes at one point but that seems to have been solved. The membranes seem to last a couple of years or so before needing replacement. They are very effective, but I'd guess that a 416 plus MKH30 would be at the upper limit of what it can cope with, I've used it with a Super CMIT and a CCM8 and that was at the upper limit but worked fine, but excercises those membranes a fair bit. They are in general very robust, I give mine heavy documentary use. It's fairly straightforward to replace the membranes. I used mine in addition to Rycote lyres and the QFL makes a big difference especially for the super sensitive side mic.

That's all I can think of for now.....
