I have an opportunity to buy a lot size of 9 of the E size bottles for cheap.

Question 1 - Are these too big and impractical to use in a 182?

Question 2 - Anyone need 6 or 7, if I wanted to unload in the classifieds?
 
how much are they? I might consider taking 2 off ur hands. maybe.
 
If I could get $25 for each, it’d be worth the hassle. Trying to see if they’re in or out of cert date.

Also need to check into shipping.

Or bring em to Rough River for you, with an exploding cigar.
 
If they are out of cert, they make great gongs for a shooting range.
 
We have 3 E-sized bottles for our 182. With no center console, they fit great with the bottom tucked under the back seat and the top will be right between the seats. I strap the bottle to the rear seat frame with a loop of the strap around the neck of the bottle so it can't shift forward. One full bottle holds about 24 hours of O2 at a moderate cannula flow rate. Hydro testing a bottle that is out of date should run about 20-30 bucks depending on the market. Fills run us about $20/bottle.
