I've searched a few HP v. LP threads, but had a more specific (and newb) question:
Just browsing Scubatoys and I noticed a "neutrally buoyant" 3300psi AL tank that's the same size/diameter as a regular AL80 3000, presumably 3-4lb heavier, and only ~$25 more. Any major downsides to going with a slightly higher pressure tank (are the yokes ok w/ 3300s, is it harder to get on-boat fills at that pressure, etc.)? It it just a waste of money for rec OW diving?
At the relatively low price differential, I figure I'd see more 3300s around...
