[Choose #3] The Visual can be out, but not the hydro.
|
|
|
[Choose #1] As long as it passes hydro and some older tanks need a eddie test
|
|
|
[Choose #5] No real reason, just my preference!
|
|

[Choose #1] there is the factor that the older composite tanks cannot be filled (aka the ones that blow up)
|

[Choose #1] While all of my Aluminum tanks are newer, I have one Steel tank from the mid 80’s and regularly dive with people using tanks that are from the 60’s & 70’s

[Choose #1] What kind of tank ?

[Choose #2] I agree with ArchimedesPrincipal,but did not catch the typing error until it was posted, thanks for catching that.

|
|
[Choose #5] I like new tanks so you know what you have & whats been in them & that there is no chance of them being over filled a lot
|
|
|
[Choose #1] As long as there inspections are up to date, I would look in to them , But my general rule is the older they are theless I will spend
|
|
|
[Choose #1] I actually bought two used ones that were first pressure tested in 1984 and they’re still in great condition.

|
|
[Choose #5] I find it best not to but tanks
|
|
|
[Choose #1] Sense I had to pick as anserI picked the oldest. I don’t buy AL tanks. I’ll buy steel tanks as old as 1970 if they are not lined tanks. All my 72s and 45s cf tanks were made in the 70s. I also have a pair of 120cf. I only dive with AL tanks on VACA
|

|
[Choose #1] YOU SHOULD HAVE A OPTION TO PICK . AS OLD AS DIRT.. TANKS ARE OK IF INSPECTED AND CERTIFIED
|
|
|
[Choose #1] I have tanks that are over 30 years old and they are just like new
|
|
|
[Choose #1] Of my 6 alum. tanks from 1989.. Only one tank failed from a neck crack.. I also have two 1970 Volt steels and they passed all test in 2008..Some dive shops in salt water area’s won’t fill alum. tanks prior to 1990..

|
[Choose #1] As long as the valves work well and hydro is current and there are no big dings, they should be good to go!
