When you say "packet" I can only imagine 20 of them in a massive cardboard box, most of which is covered with this image:

Why disassemble it? Find a way to refill it and add a regulator then all you need it´s a BBMG to play with :D
Seriously, the small threaded hole of the scuba tank make it very inefficient to be a chamber, even with a large quick opening valve... :roll:

Then you should be working on some semi or automatic, instead of disassemble a good air source :wink:

Hmm, I'd rather be able to replace the demand valve with something to connect to a bbmg, and be able to put the demand valve back on to dive with it :)

Or you could replace the octopus (reserve breathing valve) with a bbmg :D

Fair enough! I have a Dumpy tank in the garage, can't decide whether to, buy a BCD and dive with it or use it as a HPA source... Or both :D
