I'm an new diver (just certified last week), but while at the dive shop
the owner was telling me about a new STAINLESS STEEL tank he saw at a
show.  It's supposed to be shorter and narrower than a standard tank,
but still hold 80 cu. ft. at 6000 PSI!  Plus it should NEVER corrode.
Trouble is, he thinks it'll retail for over $300.  He thought that
if the prices ever come down, this will become the standard tank for
scuba diving.
