Posted this in another thread but wanted some opinions on it.
Buying tanks. Rec diving, warm water. AL80's.
Buying: Tanks are @ $200 with tax, etc. (AL80). Vis every year $15, and Hydro every 5 $45. If you have 3 tanks and have a total of 90 fills a year (30 per tank), total over 5 years is $3,660 - including all vis, hydro, and fills @ $6 each.
Tank rentals are $8 each. 90 fills a year is $720 per year, $3600 for 90 fills a year for 5 years, and no worries about vis, hydro, etc.
Is there some other reason I should be thinking about buying my own tanks?
