Hi

Sure one cannot tell someone its fine to go beyond the legal working pressure.

Would you care to expand on the "loss of any desire..." ?
If you have any real life example from an alu cylinder failure due to OP by a user that would be very interesting (no 6351 pls)





Witnessed a brand new HP130 pressured to 5000 PSI in a LDS once about a year ago...Promptly opened the valve and bled it off, while letting the operator know that 3442 was the WP, not the TP of 5000+ (%##@ Some People shouldn't work at Dive Shops either)

Consequently, I won't buy a cylinder there again!!!
