Air bottle DOT markings?

[tim_c]

If you bought an air bottle new from a UK shop, and it had DOT-E 11005 markings on it... Is it legal to fill in the UK?

Look for 2 other things mate 1) A pie sign 2) a hse sign

If it has them it is ok if not it is a standard american one

Ah, a thorough search has revealed that it's flashy 'N' symbol means it's Pi marked or whatever, panic over

Must be DOT marked as well!

Yeah mate you can as a lot of Angel bottles were dual test bottles seeing they sold to both markets.

It has a low pressure (blue) reg... Almost certainy for an angel.

Although my Ion doesn't complain

You can use dual-marked bottles in either Europe (inc. UK) or USA until the first hydro test. Then its either one or the other, depending on where you got it tested.
