    Wow that is a nice side line for them then , i guess they will not be doing business long if they try tricks like that , so if you live 300 miles from them how do you get a test you have to take it to them ?
    What company is it and ware are they would love to know

    Me either .
    to the OP I just wonder if the guy you took it to does not test them but sends them to be tested and he did not have enough to send or the place he was getting them tested has close .

    I thought any place that does testing can test any bottle ,my cylinder came from ronniesunshine but can be tested anywhere

    i took it to a dive shop that test them on site.Rather than send bottles out they get someone in two days a week to do the tests in house

    No I've never heard such a thing, a test centre is a test centre, a test is a test.

    I have heard of dive places who will not do a surface 5 year test or will not retest any cylinder that has previously been given a 5 year surface test.
    iirc it was members of a specific diving organisation.
