CF tank question

[CurmudgeInn]

What kind of valves do they have on them. I know it does not have a scuba yoke, is it a DIN? or?  I am thinking of getting something different than my dive tanks. Problem is I do not have a place with in 80 miles of me that will fill a CF tank over 3500 PSI. My other thought is to get one of those booster pumps that I have seen online so when my tanks get below 2700 psi I can use one to run the 100psi needed to boost the other tank.  Thoughts?

After a couple more sales I plan on a Freedom 8.

I would not mind one of those but I want portable.  That is why I am kind of leaning towards the booster set up.

  Robert save a little longer get a 90 Cu In cf tank and a Freedom 8 compressor unless there is someplace close to fill the hp tanks. I went that route since the closest place to fill a tank was 20 miles away and stupid traffic to make the drive a challenge thus the compressor. with the guppy tank you have portable air and fill at your lesiure

I would have to get a freedom 8 or something because no one will fill a CF tank with in 80 miles of me. :-(  I went to the range this morning with my new Evanix Sniper .357 and shot 100 down range and had to come back because my air pressure went to 2800psi.

So, I found a shop that can fill my CF Tank to between 3500 to 3900 psi depending on what time of day I bring it to him.  The question he asked me I did not know the answer to.  Is the valve on the CF tanks a Din or?  Thanks.

Google scuba tank valves, lots of pictures.

The usual CF SCBA tank valve is a CGA-347. A 44 cu ft/30 mins, SCBA tank is quite portable enough for me, and does not take too much to fill with even a standard shoebox. Valves are fairly common on ebay, and with care, at reasonable prices. Valve install can be done at the hydro shop; special tank holding tools are needed to avoid damage( and you DO NOT want to damage the CF tank ).
