The HP 119 & 130 are comperable length to the Al80.
Not true. The 119's are quite a bit shorter than the al80. They are the same in length as a HP100, just 8" dia instead of the 7 1/4". I have 3 119's and 2 100's. I have the 100's doubled up and dive the 119's as singles. I first bought the 119 because of my SAC rate. Now I have no need for the larger capacity but it is really nice not having to change out my tank for dive #2. A lot less to pack on the boat for a day of diving and I get 2 dives for the price of what 1 used to cost me.
