I need to buy a set of tank bands for my LP 85s. How do the Halcyon bands compare to Highland in terms of fit, finish and overall quality. I checked a few places, they're approximately the same price. Thanks.

I have the Halcyon bands on a set of AL80s, I think they hold up just as well as the Highland bands on my HP 130s.
I have both and both work fine. The label is nice and they are well made, but I would not pay much more for Highland bands.

I am extremely happy with my Highland bands. If you're going to pay for a name, might as well be with the best bands. If you were getting a backplate/harness then, yeah, go Halcyon...

If your cylinders are Worthington which are 7.25 the Highlands will work but if they are Fabers which are 7.00 you will need something else. XS Scuba bought the 7.25 and 8.00 inventory so Joe might still have some 7.00 in his stock. Also I know that at one time Halcyon Bands used 1/4" bolts not sure if that is still the case.
