DOT exemption for PST E7 Tanks? Expires Soon? Renewed?

[Divin'Papaw]

Actually, it would be Congress....

That's even harder

You can thank PSI-PCI for that nonsense. I really hate that organization ... for many reasons. This is just one of them.

And their writing is atrocious . Every one of their articles make my eyes bleed.

That's ridiculous, not going to happen.

Didn't DEMA get involved one of the prior times? It's in 2 weeks, maybe someone going can take it up.

My LDS is still filling and VIPing them. They told me, "don't worry about it, it'll be renewed".

DEMA 2022 is over now (Nov 1 through 4). Does anyone know whether this issue was discussed? Does anyone remember how we learned of their involvement or advocacy on this issue in the past?

How widely used are E7 tanks in industry outside of diving? Is this affecting sectors other than diving?

 

[runsongas]

this exemption was only for scuba cylinders afaik

We have been through this twice before and they were eventually recertified. I have 2 PST 130's but I also have my own compressor so I am not unduly concerned.

I'm jealous ... of the compressor and 130s. The cold diving around Ontario, not so much.

I recently nabbed 2x PST 100s for $100 each. A bit of a gamble, but I think it was a steel.
