Going with Doubles

Sorry your wrong. PST E-119’s are 7.25 inch diameter where 95’s are 8 inch diameter. And taller.

These Worthington/XS Scuba HP119s are 8 inches in diameter... Looks like Faber HP117s are also 8 inch tanks and these along with LP95s are all listed at 15L Worthington HP119 Steel Tank

Here's a good comparison chart of similar HP and LP tanks: http://www.lloydbaileysscuba.com/Docs/PST E Series Tanks.pdf

Don't you have to specify whether you've got PST E7-119 or E8-119 (like mine)? Actually, I'm not positive there is a PST E7-119, but I'm happy to be corrected. (there is a PST E7-120, tho) Not to point out the obvious, but the E8-119's are in fact 8 inch diameter.

Hi All,
Don't post much, but have always enjoyed reading on Scubaboard
I'm a cold water diver with steel 119 and thinking of going with a doubles set up.
I already dive a backplate. So my question in do you think the steel 119 would be too heavy a load.?
Mine a bit of a air vacumn so I'd like to be able to do 2 30~45 minute dives with the Doubles

Thank you
J

119s are fine but...

if you only get 30mins out of 120cf I would suggest practicing and something like GUE fundamentals or comparable from one of the good local instructors around you. Adding doubles, a bigger wing, second reg, all that "stuff" when you arent that comfortable in the water yet will just delay your improvement.
