Does anyone know or ever seen a device that is DIN and screws into the valve and allows you to dump a tank w/o making a lot of noise.

This has always been a problem for dive centers. What I do is lug the cylinder over to where I hang my wetsuit after a dive. Slip the leg of my suit over the valve and crack it open slightly. That takes care of most of the noise. It's important however not to open a valve too much as it will cause condensation inside the cylinder that you will have to dry, otherwise it will harm the cylinder.
 
Thanks Mario,

That is what I have done in the past, I just thought there could be a different way.


Thanks again
Eric
