I am using single Worthington X7 100's. They only weigh 1.5 # more than a standard aluminum 80, but are 8# more negative. My rig is about 6# lighter.
They are several inches shorter than the aluminum tanks, and I find them easy to trim.
I have the 200 BAR pro valves so I can use them my DIN regs or my daughter's yolks. I don't need any more gas. I don't do deco.

LP 85's are pretty close to the same if you can get them pumped up.

X2. I have 3 lp 85's right now with 2 of them currently doubled. In my opinion lp85 or hp 100 are the best for me. I have a 120, but I really hate how I have to wear it to trim out properly. But it's great when I want a lot of gas.
