300bar bottles

[dutchman]

Some Dutch gas companies have new 300bar bottles which contain approx. 30 litre of compressed gas and therefore containing about the same amount of gas as the standard 200bar 50litre bottles. I am trying to decide which bottle size to take, but nobody can tell me the weight of these new bottles. Does anyone have an idea of how much they weigh?

It took me about 10 inquiries, but I finally found out the full bottle weighs about 55 kilos.
This is a bit heavier than I hoped, but moving it still seems do-able.
Is that a proper word, do-able?

Hi,

English, as it's used here, isn't too formal (unlike some languages)

if that isn't a word then it's not a problem as long as everyone understands what you mean.

We don't need to worry about sentences constructed as subject, verb, time, manner, place...for instance.

Regards
Peter

Do-able is very understanderable
Note - my browser tells me that's not a word (though it recognises do-able, but not recognises), but what does it know? - it only recognizes American English, and that's an oxymoron, if ever I heard one. (take no notice Shenion, if you see this. You're an honorary Brit - if you want to be )

I can tell you that the full size bottles, filled to 300bar weigh in around 77kg i think (for a ferromax)

subject, verb, time, manner, place, oxymorons....
It's probably best not to think about that stuff too much, otherwise I don't have any brainpower left for the more important stuff, such as TIG welding
