Why in the world would you do that? Once filled with a closed isolator, they won't mix at all between tanks, you know... If you want to assure the same mix in both tanks, you need to leave that isolator open during all stages of the fill.
Or, looking at it another way, why is the isolator there? It ain't for filling the tanks.

Hi Rick,
I first fill the o2 to lets say 500 psi , then close off the isolator.
I then top off with compressed air from the bank to 2650 +/-psi into each cylinder thru the left and right post. I let sit , test each cylinder for mix and final pressure, then open the isolator.
I look at like this, I have the same amount of o2 in each cylinder because I fill with the isolator open. I get very close to the same amount of compressed air in each cylinder when I top off. They will equalize when I open the isolator, and the mix in each cylinder should be very close.
I just don't like to fill the doubles with the isolator open.
