RAMCAM 4 Posted October 19, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 19, 2012 Let me know how you get on buddy , i will definatley be saying something if their ripping folk off ........ Hi Buster I gave them a call this morning he did'nt know who it was, now he's saying £5.50 for a refill but its still £44 for a test. When i took my bottle in for the test and he told me the price, i said thats to much i thought it would be around £15 he replied no we charge that for a refill. Quote Link to post
jackinbox99 41 Posted October 19, 2012 Report Share Posted October 19, 2012 Dive place in Northampton quoted me £4.75 for a 7litre 300bar refill. They charge more than they do for normal diving bottles. Not sure why as surely its the same air and same size. Makes me think they want to pocket some extra cash of non-divers. Quote Link to post
Whizzie 38 Posted October 19, 2012 Report Share Posted October 19, 2012 That's extortionate! Had my 230bar dive tank tested & refilled last year - Above & Below. £25.00. Quote Link to post

Tron 173 Posted October 19, 2012 Report Share Posted October 19, 2012 Hiye Ramcam, As buster said theres the dive shop on the Stourbridge centre ring road, Google diving shops in the Midlands and theres plenty about within reach. The Stourbrige one charges about £4.50 for a 12 Litre 300 bar bottle refill. A tip here is just to have it filled when it drops below the pressure you use in your gun. sounds saft but some shooters empty their bottles of air ? and the refill takes much longer and p+ss~s off the shop owner who charge more for filling it up. Anyone hoping to go to Shropdive in Jackfield tomorow? dont go hese closed for another week and half. Quote Link to post
moxy 617 Posted October 19, 2012 Report Share Posted October 19, 2012 Just a word of advice if I may. NEVER empty a cylinder of air! It can potentially allow moisture into the tank which will corrode and pit your cylinder. Leading to a fail when it's tested and you being handed back a tank in two halves along with your valve!! Never had any issue when getting a cylinder refilled regarding the amount of air in it. Quote Link to post
