As you all know I was upgrading to air.

I got myself a cheap 232bar dive cylinder (£10), cos I could not afford the 300bar dive cylinder & took it to my local shop to get tested or so I thought., will explain.

I took it to the on 11/01/2007, they said 2 weeks & it will be back, like fcuk, lol. Last week, tues I got a phone call from them saying that my dive cylinder had been lost at the test centre . Been on the phone most days trying to find out whats going to happen about this problem. When I mention about them buying me a new cylinder, the very next day they found it or so they thought, lol.

I phoned them up this morning to sort everything out & my dive cylinder is no-where to be seen!!! ****s!!! After a lot of shouting & swearing, I finaly got the answer I was looking for, you can have a replacement cylinder. The best part is its a 300bar one, awesome - for only £20, its a brand new faber & considerthe original one was OLD, last test date on it was 1975, lol. They are throwing in a free fill of air & a safety mesh for it too.

Morall of this story is, dont piss me off, lol only joking. Its keep your customers sweet & you wont have to give them free stuff

Chris,

And, seeing as they are super ****s, because most air cylinders taht I know of, only have a 15 year life anyway!! Seeing as that makes it dead in 1990, you did well

I'm pretty sure I read somewhere that metal dive cylinders didn't have an expiration date.

 

[Rider]

give ya £50 for it...then you'll have made even more money!!

I believe it's not so much an expiration date as a "can only be tested x times" as each test puts an amount of stress on the bottle.

 

[IonGale]

Dont know how many times they can be tested if I am honest with you.

rider_in_black : Sorry matey, not for sale, like I said, have just upgraded to air & its the only cylinder I have got.

 

[Rider]

's alright matey - i was joking - a new 300 bar would be worth near £150 anyways.

dive shop in cambdgeshire? where was this as i may get one sometime, do you know if they test air bottles as mine runs out in july, thanks

 

[IonGale]

I dont think they do the paintball tanks, only cylinders, but you can always ask - do you want thier number? Where abouts are you then?
