I found out my Power Tank has expired. The place Tri-Gas recommended wanted $100 to inspect my bottle. Anybody have another, less expensive, alternative?

Evan,
This is the same place. I must have walked in on a cranky day. I'll try again and see what they say. I can live with $60.
Resurrection of an old thread.
I had a bottle that needed to be hydro tested. I took it to Aidant, which has done the work for me in the past. Bottom, line, they don't do the testing any more, and they are not aware of anybody in NM that does the work. She had heard somebody in Santa Fe was doing it, but was unable to figure out who that is. They now send their bottles to some place in AZ. She indicated everybody else does too. She said they have been trying to find out what the SCUBA people are doing with no luck.
I was quoted $80 to do the testing, plus shipping (she said $60, which sounded high). Doing a little homework, you can get a new 10# bottle for $104 to your door.
This just sucks. Just think of all the CO2, welding, diving, and other bottles out there just in ABQ that need periodic testing. Too Google I go to see if anything is available online for testing.
Called Argyle. They said $35 to test and fill. Wait is 2 weeks. I will drop off tomorrow and hope it's true.

I've used Tri-gas. No longer walk in you need to drop it off at their 2nd street store.Where are you having your tank filled at normally? Does Tri-gas still do it on a walk-in bases?
Thanks
