Second hand SCUBA tank price

Post by daisy »

Local dive shop will do a Al one for $150 which is 11 litres and will take around 240bar.
Seems like a fair price.

I had to send my adaptor back to Lewis as it arrived with a broken meter.

For the price is that scuba tank an aluminium or steel one?

RayG it's a aluminium one, I just used Al as I'm such a bad speller ha;f the time spell checkers don't help.
Anyway I got it, as they are the ones to fill it and know what I'll be using it for it seemed the way to go. Price looked ball park for what else I could fine.
