I'm asking Mr. Claus to bring me my first BCD/REG package which has a Dacor Talon BCD. Does anyone know if it can accommodate the larger tanks (100's and 120"s)? Would I have to get a larger BCD or some type of special configuration?

Thanks for your help!
 
It would probably handle them fine as singles. A better question is will Mares continue to support the Dacor BC with parts for servicing. They've already discontinued production and dumped support on most of the Dacor gear. If you're set on buying from them, get the Mares stuff.

I guess that's why the price is so good.

Prolly so! OTOH, BC's don't require much maintenance. Dump valves, corrugated hoses and inflators are pretty generic. If it's a great deal, why not? The worst that will happen is you use it for a year or two and get something new. You'll probably do that anyway. :D
