I'm looking at some older backplates on eBay to dive with. I saw this really cool one made by Saf-Dive Company that I thought I wanted but when I asked the seller if I could fit an al80 in it he said no, and it wasn't adjustable. So...is that a problem I am going to have if I want an older backplate with the metal band? Or are most adjustable enough? Any particular ones I should keep my eye out for to use al80's with. I'm in no big hurry for one, just something else I want. Thanks for reading.

Hi Weldon,

I just ran across this post. Have you found a back pack yet? If not, I have a few old back packs that are crying to come out of my closet. One is the old Scuba Pro with a metal band. It has a handle on one side to release the band in order to change tanks and a hand wheel on the other side to make adjustments for different size tanks.

I also have an old metal band doubles back pack.

Let me know if you're interested.
