Many people use tanks for weight in drysuits.
Especially the Euro12Liter versions range from 12,3 to 14,3 Kilograms empty. Up to 2 Kilos negative empty for 300bar versions.
Because people do it doesn't make it right, you were trained by HP Hartman weren't you? Did he teach you to use your tanks as weight?
What manufacturer are these tanks? Faber, Scubapro? I'd like to see the specs....
