Vital air will sell you the stuff if you are a certified blender as will praxair, BOC and all the other guys. The only problem people will have filling Jumbo D's from the DAN kits are that they have green tops. In Canada and all the rest of the world (excluding our neighbours to the south) oxygen bottles have white tops. Any respectable outfit will suggest the top be painted white prior to filling. Prescriptions are not required even though technically oxygen is a drug. For hydros try Superior Safety on Bently. There is no need to pay the middle man to send it in for you.
Dive shop vs praxair fill of a d-cylinder......... guess which one does the nitrogen purge first, then seals the orifice and then puts the entire cylinder into a sealed plastic bag to prevent contaminants from getting on the valve?
Does the average dive shop have the proper fill whip to fill a Jumbo D? I know on mine the tank valve on the Jumbo D looks a lot different than the one on my scuba tank.
Hey Doppler what is 8.5 cu. m in cu. ft or litres for us metrically challenged please. I don't imagine that O2 tank is too portable for taking to a remote dive site is it?
