Rating: Awesome tank
Reviewer: Pat T.,
The HP 80 steel tank is great. Hold the same amount of air as al-80, but smaller and lighter. Also, still negative bouyant at the end of the dive. Would never buy aluminum tank. HP Steel is the way to go.

Reviewer: Candance Springer,   
I am pleased with this tank however the Pro Valve I had an issue with. I am going to have the plug changed out to convert to my yoke regulator because the regulator does seat properly. I was able to take 8lbs of lead off so I am very pleased about that.

Reviewer: jeffrey c.,
Fanastic Tank If You Want To Remain Negative At The End of Your Dive. Superior To Aluminum 80s In My Opinion. As an Aluminum Tank Becomes Empty, You Become Positively Buoyant Making Bouyancy Control More Difficult At The End of Your Dive And Also Increasing Air Consumption Rate.

Rating: Cant say anything bad
Reviewer: Landon F.,   
This is a perfect tank for me. Im a short man and hated the longer tanks that would hit me in my rear. This tank fits perfect on my back sitting right on top of my belt line. I also love it being a steel tank because it helped me shed the weight from my vest. Also the steel help balance the wait when your low on air. I recommend this tank for anyone.

I am glad that I purchased this tank. It allows me to take off a good 8 pounds in my BC. Being small it also gives me less on my back. Ez to carry.

Rating: Ahhhh
Reviewer: Cara V Tufts,  - View all my reviews
This is a perfect little tank. I just bought one of these High Pressure 80s and love it. Its shorter by a few inches but has the same capacity as its larger cousins. The height of the tank is about the same as that of my BC so instead of having to lift my BC up (weight and all) to cinch the strap around the valve, I let my BC rest on whatever surface Im using when coupling my tank to the BC. This makes it easier for me cinch and tighten the straps. Im spoiled and will be buying another one for myself next year and, if hes good, one for my diving buddy for Christmas.

steel tanks are the way to go!! My wife loves it and is able to cut off a few pounds as well. its short enough so her legs dont hit the bottom side of the tank. I would recommend this Item to others.
