Bad news George. I'm a dumb-ass! I thought those were the same as the PST 104s. I didn't bother to research them until after I bought them. And then I still wasn't sure because the specs on the net are not consistent. That's why I asked for some first hand opinions. Everyone says they're too heavy and not to use them. The good news is I was able to resell them at no loss without taking delivery. The last thing I need around here is more junk that I can't (or don't want) to use. Thanks for the fast response from those who answered my question about this. Saved me almost $100 in crating and shipping costs. -Randy -----Original Message----- From: George Irvine [mailto:girvine@be*.ne*] Sent: Friday, April 19, 2002 10:35 PM To: Randy Bohrer; Techdiver Subject: RE: Doubles for Sale and Just Bought Some Doubles Randy, these people really think you bought the Heisers. You should not have stopped there - you should have said you got a set of 100 pound bondage wings and an MLS light with them. Too funny. This reminds me of when Rod Farb recommended using a "helium lock" on doubles when one of the New England boat monkeys said the helium leaks out and leaves the rest of the gas. I guess these guys will have to be around for another ten years to appreciate your sense of humor. -----Original Message----- From: Randy Bohrer [mailto:randy@mi*.co*] Sent: Friday, April 19, 2002 10:07 AM To: Techdiver Subject: Doubles for Sale and Just Bought Some Doubles I'm selling a set of double 80s with isolator manifold. Check ebay http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=1822658978. You can choose between the Sherwood DIN with Isolator or Sea Elite Manifold. I rarely dive these tanks, because it takes too much lead to sink me and my drysuit. I normally dive 104s. I just bought a set of 104s, but they are the Heiser 104s, not the Pressed Steel. I believe that the Heisers are made from steel tubing (and maybe have flat bottoms?). I also understand that Heiser 104s are heavier than Pressed Steel 104s, but seem to be about the same size. My question is am I going to be as happy with these tanks as I am with my old pst 104s, or will these end up collecting dust like my 80s? Sincerely, C.
