Rehydro by mail?

[Jaan]

Is there someplace I can mail tanks out to be hydro tested that's affordable with a reasonable turn around?

Seems reasonable 🤷

They were recommended by RI Paintball too. That's Hogan's Alley Paintball in Connecticut.

It's not terrible. My local scuba shop charges $50. I still think that's high because there was a place in town that would do it for $24 when I first moved here. That place got bought out by oxarc who then shut it down.... Thanks, super helpful

But my scuba shop is charging the same amount for 80cf scuba tanks so, yeah

that’s who I’ve used they got my stuff done and back to me in like 12 days ( from the time I shipped till I got them back) granted it was the off season here in New England and their out of Connecticut so the tanks didn’t have to travel far

They’re also one of the few companies I’ve found who are able to certify UNISO tanks like the ones First Strike sells. Many places only do DOT.

Hogan's Alley is the way. Also great they ship a box to you.

I used Hogan's Alley back in 2022, and HydroLabs right before the pandemic. Both had a quick turnaround. I posted a review of HydroLabs, maybe? It would've been titled HydroLabs vs Ninja or something like that.

Thanks for the suggestions guys...I went with Hogan's Alley and they were great. Even sold me a few screws and hoses that I needed to finish off this guy....

I've always gone to a local fire extinguisher place. It was close to 15 years ago but when I lived in Quincy there was a place that charged $10 and you could pick up the tank the next day. The place in the town I live in now charged me $30 the last time I needed a tank tested.
