Mike,
Go ahead and continue to take my comments out of context. I have never ONCE diminished the quality of Aldora and their operation - in fact I recommend them and refer people to them - so go ahead and pretend there are "issues" between Dave and Memo and I and pit us against each other - because that would make us all laugh actually. I am not "justifying" my use of AL 80's - I have never considered going to steel tanks and I won't. My business model works the way it is and I have many loyal and happy new and old customers. Some people prefer the steel tanks for various reasons, and that's fine - as I said - it's a personal preference - why do you have such a problem with that statement?
For SOME the larger tanks are a benefit - to others they are not necessary because another thing, not everyone needs or wants dives longer than an hour - some people are cold, or bored and ready to come up after an hour...as I said - it's a personal preference - but steel or aluminum tanks do not make or break a shop IMO. You're of course entitled to yours.
Thank you Dave for that - maybe when I am fully recovered from my surgery I can hit the water with you - that would be fun actually I dive a Halcyon BP and wing AND have some fancy new webbing (thanks lhutchins) so when I am back in the water, a perfect time to make the necessary adjustments to my ger .
