If it says 40 it is not a Mach V 18. The lower wing in your photos above is not a Mach V anything.

Scubatoys is not a good reference, their example photos are all messed up and need updating.

My oxycheq 18 says 18 on the tag. Mine is the travel wing and not the Mach V.
 
Inside tag? There's a tag on the panel that faces the BP, as mentioned above.

Inflated it's about 15"w x 23" tall.

Will call them today.

Thx

I think you have a 40# wing. I have a 30# Mach V, very similar to this dimension.
 
You could try filling it with water, then weighing it. Compare that to it's empty weight and you have the approximate lift. I'm sure you already thought of that, but maybe someone else wouldn't.

Or you could fill it with water, dump into a bucket, measure the volume...etc...

If it is a 40 and it's small enough to make you wonder if it's 18, that's a pretty streamlined wing.

My 18# MV is is ~ 22.5 " tall by ~12" at it's widest.

My MV 30 # is ~ 23.5" high by 13" at it's widest.

All Measurements inflated.

You have a 40# I suspect.
