Anybody have any thoughts about what would be the better purchase LP or HP steel tanks? LP tanks seem to be more popular because of the overfill capacity. LP tanks are good for a +10% overfill for the first five years. However, after the first hydro, a 98 cu. ft. tank is reduced to 89 cu. ft. Conversly, a HP 100 at 3500 psi is 100 cu. ft. for life. Is it really that difficult to get a good fill with a HP tank? An HP 3500 tank filled to 3000 psi has only 86 cu. ft. of air. Not much more than an AL 80. And what about the preception that HP is hard on regulators? Yur comments please!
