Hi dl348:
I'm glad to read that you're happy with your new Worthington low pressure 95 cuft cylinders, but I disagree with your statement, "You can overfill..."
Pressurizing the LP-Series beyond 2640 psi is outside of the DOT specifications, Worthington Cylinders design and the recommendation of XS Scuba.
If you believe some myth that these low pressure cylinders are really high pressure cylinders downgraded by the manufacturer to 2400+ psi, you're wrong.
Our X-Series cylinders, also manufactured by Worthington, are high pressure cylinders designed for fill pressures up to 3442 psi. These cylinders are manufactured from a different steel alloy, different tooling and different design.
The specifications of all steel cylinders manufactured by Worthington can be found at this link: http://xsscuba.com/tank_steel.html

dl348:I have a set of Worthington LP 95s and couldn't be happier with them. You can overfill them to approx. 3000-3300 psi and increase your bottom time if you want.
They're great.
