If you love high tech fancy gear, then you have to consider the Luxfer 106. It is the world’s highest pressure scuba diving cylinder and the first composite. The pressure rating of 4350PSI offers a phenomenal air capacity and so extra Extra EXTRA dive time! And if you want even more time, the cylinder can hold nitrox/oxygen-rich mixes.

Things we like:

Lighter than other 11.1L tanks
Higher pressure so can pack in more air

Things we don't like:

Not permitted in Canada
Can only be used with DIN regulators
Check that it can be used with your regulator due to increased pressure
Higher capacity means a higher chance it’ll be a bugger to fill!
