"Take a carefull look at the difference between full and empty."

This could be tricky. What weighs more a pound of lead or a pound of feathers? 100 cuft of air weighs the same whether you pump it high or low pressure. The HP100 is about 31# MT and the LP104 is about 46# MT. You will use the same amount of air while diving and the relationship in weight will always remain. Or what am I missing here?
