You mean a hydrotest setup?

No, a pressure pot is usually a bench-top chamber for testing instruments and such against simulated diving depths. I don't know if there are standard ratings but they are on the order of simulating 14.7 PSI per 33 feet to whatever depth.

Actually there is an AL80 sitting on my porch waiting to sliced up so a buddy can build one.

If you find a DIY pressure pot be sure to fill it as full as you can with water. The remaining space or air you pump in will be in a limited amount as if a failure does occur, no dramatic explosion will occur. The more air vs water that is used, the greater the failure event will be.

lord- care to share your project with some pictures?

once it is done:)
 
East Coast Divers in Brookline has one.
 
Yep have one. I'm in NH just East of Concord. I have tested my lights to over 300' in it.
