I was told that these are actually LP 109s, made by OMS with a heavier bottom to prevent it from getting lighter like the Fabers. I was also told that they would be great for trimix due to lighter nature of trimix mixes.
Copy and paste that claim cause now I'm curious in what way they differ from 108s. Which are listed at -1 buoyancy empty.
I love a mystery....and I am no tank expert. Hell, I'm not even a diver. Currently. Soon. Maybe.

I looked at the OMS website but since DUI has taken over they no longer have tanks listed. I am sure someone who knows more about technology than I do could pull up.an archived page with the specs.
Sorry, can't copy and paste what I was told :)Quote:
