Need some info

I have a Dive tank that ran out of test in March this year. I haven't got round to getting it re-tested as i have no need, but now a certain toury is coming to a end. I will be playing woodsball over winter.

Does it have to be tested within a year of it runing out or anything like that

There is not hard and fast rule, the 15l I use had been out of test for a few years, you'll probably have to get the full hydro test as opposed to the 'interim' visual test.

Needs to be in test for it to be filled though.

So i may have to get a full test instead of a Interim. Does anyone know how much these are ??

Varies accordng to each dive shop/ testing centre. depending on what type of test the tank had last time then it may need a hydro test anyway as they alternate;

Visual test
Hydro test
Visual test
Hydro test

Visual tests are anything from about £20-25 the last hydro test I had done was about £35, if it's through a dive shop then the turnaround is 7-10 days unless they do them onsite.
