Mine were not done during the last hydro before I owned them. I wonder why that rule is..they were within spec to receive the +.

I've seen that debated before... Do you have a reference that states that? (Not trying to be difficult, but looking for a definitive reference).

Respectfully,

Incorrect, old dive shop tale, at anytime if the tank passes the specifications to qualify for the plus it can be plus rated even if it wasn't for X number of previous hydros.

I found this old post citing the regulations that would suggest that you are absolutely correct:
Plus ratings and hydros'
There is one misstatement regarding the need for an additional test.

You are amazing at finding older posts.... I search, but I don't come up with near the amount of stuff you do.

Thanks.

I had forgotten about that thread, went back and reread it. It is probably the best hydro related thread here.
