Rating: Really Pleased
Reviewer: Michael Albert,
Of course, other reviews have already mentioned the excellent quality of the tanks and the advantages of steel over aluminum. Naturally, the higher capacity versus 80cu foot tanks is also a plus. I also very pleased with the valves. Theyre very good quality, and switching between yoke and DIN fittings just takes an allen wrench and less then 10 seconds.

Reviewer: chris wimmers,
I bought two of these tanks and love them. This site is great. You cant find dive equipment any cheaper anywhere especially when there is free shipping. I dont need to explain all the good benefits from using steel 100cu feet tanks.

Reviewer: Yvonne Kitchen, - View all my reviews
I ordered this item on line. I am not that informed about the product as I ordered it for my husband for christmas. I called the contact number and was given a very helpful saleperson who in turn knew just what I was looking for. He was right my husband is thrilled with the tank and I owe it all to the advise of a well informed salesperson and the easy web site.

Rating: Great Bottle
Reviewer: Robert R.,
I bought this bottle because I needed something quickly and the order through the local dive shop was going to take too long. Im a bit of an air hog (hence the 100 CU 3442 tank) and I like steel for the buoyancy characteristics. This bottle is great. Its relatively light for a steel tank, compact, and the galvanized coating is better than painted bottles in my opinion as it wont peel off. My other two bottles are Genesis 120CU 3442s and this one is actually more negative both full and empty so I got to take another 2 lbs out of my weight pockets. Sweet. Overall I think this is a great product. Buy with confidence.

Rating: 100 cf steel tank
Reviewer: David M.,
This tank is great because it is much smaller and 13 lbs lighter than my 100cf compact aluminum tank. Steel tank is 35 lbs, compact aluminum is 48 lbs. In addition I was able to almost cut my weight in half. I just got back from lobster season in the keys and wish I had 2 of em.

Rating: good tanks good size
Reviewer: Roy J.,
In my area- central coastal California- these are the tanks of choice. Not too large nor too small. Gives an easy hour underwater and of course steel cuts down on other needed weight for buoyancy.

Reviewer: Darrell Brackett, - View all my reviews
This tank is the perfect size for my usual diving needs. 100 CF gives me plenty of air to spare, allows deep dives, and the weight of the tank helps keep my weight belt slim.
Im using the tank for Nitrox, and tank and valve are Nitrox ready. I also like the ability to switch the valve to DIN if necessary.
Overall a great tank at a great value. I highly recommend. If you dive regularly, you should own your own tank. This is a great choice.

The 100 holds all you need for a good dive and some reserve for needed. No complaints so far, would recommend this to anyone.

Hello, On the 100CU steel tank Xs100, does this come certified to go right to Nitrox? Also, does it ship for 100% free or are there ancillary charges for shipping?
Secondly, can I use my standard regulator with this tank? If so, I assume I do not have to convert to DIN.
Can you tell me the circumference of the tank, the height with valve and the weight empty?

3. Could you inform me what email address and the person I can contact later?
Thank you.

Daniel:
I just ordered these exact same tanks from my LDS, they informed me that these tanks do not come o2clean and that if I wanted to run Nitrox up to 40% I would have to spend the extra $150 with them to have them cleaned, so I did. However if your tanks are Nitrox ready upto 40% than why do they not come with the VI sticker stamped or the Nitrox sticker. This is very frustrating because I would like to know who I can trust spending my money with in the future.
Darrick (Certified Scuba Instructor at Scuba.com)
:
Hello Daniel, the reason we do not put nitrox stickers on the tanks is not everyone dives on mixed gas. Plus we do not have Nitrox at our retail store. If you have any other questions or would like to place an order please feel free to give us a call at 1.800.347.2822.
Tom:
What is the life span of an aluminum tank (80). I have a few tanks from the late 80s and early 90s. Hydro tested as required but how long can this go on?
Bob (Certified Scuba Instructor at Scuba.com)
:
There is no set lifespan for a tank. They are designated by DOT to be hydrostatically tested every 5 years and so long as they continue to pass this test, could feasibly remain in service for decades.
Mike:
What size are the tank/valve neck threads?
Bill (Certified Scuba Instructor at Scuba.com)
:
All the cylinders will be a standard 3/4 - 18 size thread, except for cylinders rated at 3500 psi or greater.
