When a Tank Fails Hydro

I haven't had a tank fail a hydro yet but have been wondering of some good uses for one when it does happen.

A bell is interesting. I think I'll try it when the time comes.

Recycle for scrap. I have plenty of lamps. But I can always use more beer!

NO way my wife would let a scuba tank lamp take residence in our house, lol. I think I'm leaning toward scrap.
