Bob,

I have had one experince where they couldn't fill my tanks because
of the manifold. 

Sherwood makes an adapter to fill DIN tanks of of a yoke whip. The adapter
has a "key" that only works with Sherwood or 200 bar DIN systems. There
is one shop on Long Island that I went to that couldn't fill my tanks.
Any shop that has DIN whips will have no problems. Posiedon makes a
simmilar adapter without the key, and a couple of shops I know filed the
key off of their adapter. I bought my own after that experince on L.I.

If you planning on going to trimix sometime in the future stay away
from the Sherwood. If you are planning on staying air/Nitrox then
the leaking problem with the Sherwoods wouln't hurt you.
