Vayu:I walked in to a diveshop to pick up fins one day, and the owner of the shop was overfilling some tanks. Well the burst disc failed on one of them and the neck popped off. This thing took off like a missle through the roof and nearly took me with it. Take it from someone who has seen these things pop: You don't want to do this.
The same diveshop has tried to kill me a few times since then. It may not be the tanks, but the poor care they have recieved. This shop is The Aquatic Center in Gainesville, Florida. Please avoid at all costs.
Thanks,

There we go, first hand account that overfilling cylinders reduces the safety margin
