    Composite Tanks

    I am working on a couple of ideas that could benefit from using small, low profile composite tanks. Luxfer makes only one that is too large and I am already talking to Interspiro about a smaller version of their Divator tanks. Are there any other manufactures of composite tanks made for scuba?

    Just t give you some fyi I work in the propane industry and We have composite tanks.... They are a huge pain.... they dont last as long versus steel or aluminum tank and they cost more.... just something for you to think about.
