I've seen a number of people slam Genesis tanks, but I've never been quite
clear on why.  I've heard that the alloy used in the HP tanks tends to rust
easily, they require the use of 300 bar DIN-equipped regulators, and some
dive shops don't like them cuz they drain their high banks more quickly, but
does this make them "storkes only" gear?

Personally, I use low pressure steels .

Any enlightenment appreciated.
