Just thought I'd share with others that the danger is real if you start playing with this stuff. No, its not my house.

George already posted it. That's not a danger of home brew, it's a danger of not following correct proceedures.

Was it posted in texas swamp divers already? if so sorry for the double post and mods please remove, I only come to this forum on scuba board so if its some place else I didn't see it.

Handling high pressure gases always contains some danger, risk of explosions and fires are real even when following SOP albiet very small when done properly, everything contains risk, even sitting on the couch eating cheatos.

Yes, there really is a reason why you have to scrub tanks and make them ready for 02. Not to mention that during servicing, tools and equipment associated with the filling system have to free of oil, grease and other petroleum products.

I like to bubble the O2 through a coffee can filled with discarded grease. I love the smell of bacon at 100'.
