I dive steel HP tanks and really like not having weight on the belt / pockets. Of course it's not a big deal to add a few pounds for the AL. My question to you is what are your dive buddies using or going to use. Mine all run HP steel tanks for 100, 119, 120, 130 and doubles of the mix. So if I had an AL 80 they would really on want to dive with me even is my SAC was great. The other thing is what tank can you handle for your size. Can you swim up a steel 100 from 80 feet if your diving a wet suit. Can you dive a few sizes and see what you like? Why not buy from a shop?
