I have also been putting together an O2 system as well and in doing
considerable research found that I could easily put a system together
a brand new system for under $250 equivalent to the ones that the
"Soaring" sites typically charge $350+ for.
I get the mask, canula and flowmeter kit ($95) from Cumulus soaring
and the Cylinder, Valve and Regulator from the cheapest "Medial
supply" place ($60+$40).
The price seems to be getting inflated on the O2 cylinder and
Regulator but if you compare specs you will realize that the typical
13 cu.ft "D" size cylinder only costs ~$60 from medical supply places
instead of $215+ from an Aero supplier and a functionally equivalent
regular can be had for $40 instead of $170.
The cylinders are identical in size, shape & specs and come from the
same factory (Luxfer).
Also, the oxygen for ABO(Aviator), Medical and Welding all come from
the same source and be had in the same composition, but if your bottle
has an ABO or Medical sticker they are only allowed to be filled from
a single specific source type, narrowing your filling opportunities
considerably.
You are best off getting an unmarked bottle and filling it anywhere,
Scuba shop, airport, medical supply(with prescription as they
typically dont know they can supply pilots without one) or welding
supply.
There are also "Electronic O2 conservers"($300 Devillbliss) at half
the price of the "Aviation"($600) one I have seen, but I did not
research it enough to know for certain if it is equivalent.

Well I am still looking, I have a little better definition of the
needed equipment now. The EDS controller is a must. The tank should
be the 5 1/4" approximate diameter. That is the size of the clamp in
the D2. I will consider buying the components seperately. Dick

Hi Dick,
I offer new Mountain High systems. I have spent a lot of time making my
Mountain High web site a valuable resource. It includes duration charts and
cylinder sizes for every system. You can see a system with a 5.25" diameter
cylinder in the link below.

I am sure I did not spend as much time on my website as Paul. But all
the same information is on the site in a consise manner. What I can
provide which is much more helpful is the experience of thousands of
hours of flying with the Mountain High Systems.
