You laugh, but I have seen this configuration. Well, twin 6ft3. argon 
bottles.

Why you ask?

I had a scuba pro manifold with a small leak. I was at a shop working 
on it. We would try something to fix the leak, then fill my 104's to 
2400 & drop them in the water to see the leak.

After about the third time of doing that the manager of the place 
said to Derrik and I, "Why don't you guys use these argon bottles 
instead of the 104's?". 

So we did. It was funny when Lloyd walked in and saw the two argon 
bottles with a manifold sitting in the bottom of the fill bath. I 
don't think he realized why we were doing that, but it sure made it 
easier to fill and bleed the argon bottles as opposed to my 104's.
