I am incharge of the air unit in my town the problem that i have is that there is no fill station that can do 5000psi bottles.
Kat? Compressed air to be contained in tubing in the harness assembly, and contains the same amount of air as a conventional cylinder, according to the article.

Bobby? The article didn't say that the new system is to be at 5000psi.

Interesting concept, much smaller profile than the current removable cylinders would be very useful for general wear, not just confinewd space work. The question I have is would there be a quick change system as with the current removable cylinders? We'll have to wait and see :)
