Where to buy

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.

Recommended in: Scuba Tank

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!
