Acually I was under the impression that all of the Genesis HP tanks were rated to 3500 psi. And all 3500 (not 3442) tanks have 7/8ths threads and DIN valves. Now you have me second guessing myself. Must do a little research.

3442psi = 3/4" threads
as you discovered outlet angle is not reliable. but 7/8" is a visibly narrower neck than the 3/4"

Although the ad does say that it needs a new zipper for $300 which makes it a considerably less great deal IMHO.

Re: Craigslist deals
i think josh got his done for less than that, and i remember one of my LDS' saying that they did new USIA zippers for ~$225. but that was over a year ago. maybe their prices went up a bit since then.Nwbrewer wrote:Where? I think that's been about to going rate locally.

"FREE Diamond Kevlar drysuit, needs new neck and wrist seals"
Don't know how expensive that is, but its gotta be a steal when the rest of the suit is free.
There is also some other stuff up there.
