Has any one had any experience using scuba tanks? a standard tank holds 80 cubic feet (some go up to 100-120 cf). while they are pressurized to 3000 psi, the first stage regulator drops it to 125 psi (equivalent to compressor). I recently picked up a nozzle for $10 at a dive shop that attaches to a low pressure line from the first stage (that's the one that plugs into the BC or the 2nd stage regulator. Have not tried it yet, but seems like it should work as long as your careful not to over inflate. I would'nt mind dropping the pressure down though, Does anybody know if there is a regulator to drop it down to maybe 7-9 psi?

I was also thinking about a pony bottle, maybe 30-40 cf? was wondering if that would fill a kite 2-3 times? any thoughts?
