I'm from the UK, I used to live near Seattle, late 60's early 70's. Everybody dived with steel tanks then, never saw any aluminium tanks.
I've visited the States every few years, & now it all seems aluminium.
Does anybody know the statistics on the % of steel to aluminium tanks, in the USA & Canada ?
In my diving travelling there seems to be more steel in the UK & Europe, than aluminium, & that has been the state since I first starting diving.
Steel seems to be better, smaller, higher pressure, more volume, than aluminium.
Why ?
