You should take one of each fitting. No matter what anyone tells you you may 
not find things as expected when you get there and all that dive gear will be 
useless. You know itas the old redundancy redundancy redundancy thing and you 
need to take redundant fittings.
Good Luck




This is my first posting.

I'm a still photographer.  I've been diving for awhile and was recently
trained on the Mk 15.5 rebreather by "Leon of St. Helens" for the purpose
of photographing timid marine life.  Sometimes it works, sometimes it
doesn't and sometimes it works so well I painted eyes on the back of the
unit.

I will be diving some remote islands north of Timor this November and am
having three 6 cubic meter oxygen cylinders shipped out in advance from
Bali.  The problem is none of my contacts can tell me what fittings are on
the cylinders so I can rig a hose to decant the gas.  I've been told the
cylinders are from Japan and it was suggested they are using either
American Standard or British fittings.

Does anyone out there know what kind of fittings the Japanese might be
putting on oxygen cylinders shipped to Indonesia?
