Banked EANx

[kidspot]

Anyone know of a shop on Maui that banks EANx? Preferably 32% but 36% is ok too.

How about other islands - Anyone on Oahu, Big Isle etc.?

Aloha, Tim

You could always buy a cascade, a haskel and a compresser. and share of course.

Hey Tim... why do you want it banked?

I know that Maui Dreams has the "stick" which means they can fill EAN to your specification (e.g. 38%) as fast as they can air...

a couple of the shops in Lahaina have sticks, but they won't use them after their compressors "blew out" and the cause was blamed on their sticks, so they don't use them any longer.

I really don't want to have nitrox only tanks as I mostly dive air ... but it would be nice to have nitrox available at times... thus no PP for those tanks.

Thanks for the word on Maui Dreams Kris.

MM- I was looking at cascade bottles and compressors today ... dreaming for now (a haskel is outside even my "dream" range though lol)

Aloha, Tim

I'm not positive, but I think Aaron's in Kailua (Oahu) does.

Or just make a whip (mine is running $120) and lease a O2 tank from GasPro then top it off at the shop. =)

Yikes... I know that Don at MDDC knows what he's doing and that compressor is kept in tip-top shape with very regular air testing.

I don't know which shops had the trouble, but I wonder if doing the Nitrox blending that way just means having your compressor serviced to a higher standard, with lubes, etc. and that wasn't the case... *shrug* just a thought.

Tim,

Island Divers Hawaii does here on Oahu. House mix is 32.

B&B usually has a few tanks of various mixes.

Is B&B banking now? I thought they only did partial pressure filling?
