Now that is interesting coz mine did the same a couple of years back and
Neil Githries did the same on board Karin, I have just ordered one from
Sub qua Products and asked the guy if he had had many returned, he said
no. Anymore had problems with these small cylinders?
I know what is causing the problem, its called salt water back filling
the bottle when empty, maybe a one way valve would help.
Nasty little bomb on your hands as mine was hissing away in my hand with
me thinking that the main O_ring had gone. Lo and behold a bit on the
neck fell out on my hand and well I`m sure you can imagine.
