scba tanks down

[bigHUN]

When I recalculate my expenses for total cost (bottles + compressor + couple of rebuilts and maintenance) I feel like a certified large CF 300 bar tank is just less cost overall even refilling in scuba shop.

Where did you find/get 14L tanks from? I'm intrigued.

I think they are just common standard 60 minute tanks that firemen use

I believe that if they are really 14 liter tanks that they are not common at all. I have 5 tanks in total. 1 new 9L Acecare, 1 new Dragger 45 min, 1 used 60 min scott and two 45 min used scott. All the used ones still have current hydro. the 9 liter acecare is the same as a 60 min scott fireman tank in size. I know that you can find 12L tanks but I never seen 14L tanks. Not saying that they dont exist just that i have not seen any.

Apparently, Scott also has 75 minute tanks.....maybe that is what they are.

The first hydrostatic tested sticker shows 08 on that picture and there is a newer date other side of some bottle, and it is bonded to CF coating under a thick transparent layer. Can't comment if some standards have changed along these years.
