I am shopping for a cylinder, the LDS has a Worthington LP7-77 steel cylinder. I do not see this cylinder listed on seapearls.com or xsscuba.com. Who has the low down on this cylinder?

PhilEllis:This is new cylinder from Worthington designed to be competitive with the aluminum 80 cylinders. It is made to the same high standards as the other Worthington cylinders, but is cold galvanize sprayed instead of the hot galvanizing dip used on the other cylinders. The cylinder is rated at 77.0 CF @ 2400+ PSI. The buoyancy is -6.8 pounds when full and -1.0 pounds when empty. The empty weight of the cylinder is 32.5 pounds with the standard K valve. The length of the cylinder is 23.2 inches.
Overall, this is a nice cylinder. Any more? Thanks.
