WTB 3L Inspiration-type steel tanks

decoweenie · 14th August 2005, 07:44

I am looking for multiple sets of 3L Inspiration-type (Faber) steel tanks for some local divers.

Originally, I was going to get them from AP-Valve but their tank stock is low so they want to reserve them for selling with their units.

Are there any sources that have them in-stock and would ship to UAE ?

TIA

You can try:

in Denmark, if you can not find them any closer.
I do not know if they have them in-stock, but at least they have them at their site.

You can use any 3L tank and get the valves from AP. Guess it depends if there lack of stock is the tanks or the valves.

I don't know if APV is actually short on tanks or valves, but if I was able to get hold of the tanks, I will be putting non-linear valves on them anyway since they will be used on SK units.

Whats wrong with standard Faber/Roth 3L tanks then - Just about any UK dive retailer has these in stock.

Is there something different about the AP tanks?

I think they are the same ?

Anyway, we are just in a hurry to get them here. That's all... I think I have found some at SDS for 92 quid/each. Wonder if there are cheaper places than SDS...

Try Godive http://www.godive.net/gdequp.htm I got some 7L shipped to Malta and arranged to get them shipped here but not via corior as it was too expensive. They were very helpful as well. They have them for 49.99 bare and valve 35.99 so 85 quid!

Hope this helps
