Dang, this set of doubles looks so (expletive deleted) cool! I think the valves in the tanks may be for welding, I might be wrong, but Jim Steel was saying that was what people did in the early days! www.ebay.com/itm/scuba-doubles-tanks-vintage-/122892591577?_trksid=p2141725.m3641.l6368I think 1800-psig so they'ed prolly pass hydro too! Ty, you totally need these for that Voit of yours, put a clear coat on them to preserve that beautiful patina... JB

JB,
That's a R-restrictor valve too. The reserve works on the restrictor orifice (like the original Scubair), which can be turned off underwater (if you can reach it).

I have a set that were used with a converted oxygen diluter regulator. My tanks had a born on date of 1938.

Gosh, that it one nifty looking set, and the "buy it now price" isn't too bad... Jim Steele has a bunch of these that I'm going to utilize as a source. I'm sure this is the same type of tank as on my "Diver Dick" kit too! I just love how light and throw-about they are... JB
