It would undoubtably be smaller and a lot lighter.

      That's two of us. Sort of like the 47ci/3000psi AL tank as apposed to the 68ci/3000psi steel one.

      That's a lot more than a 3.5oz CO2 tank. Anybody know the measurements of that tank? Compare it to the mini-SCUBA rated tank I found at Luxfer. That tank weighs a little over 2lb and has twice the capacity. (although you'd need to add the weight of a regulator)
      "Weight-wise, about the same as a 7oz tank and just a tich shorter. And since it's under 2" it never needs hydro."

      More than I said but still.....

      You have to understand that the site giving the weight is also charging well over $100 for a 12V or 9V Revy and showing a pic of a VL200.

      They also WAY over estimate the weight of their items so they can charge crazy shipping.
