Looking at the theoretical buoyancy change of these 4.4x200 tanks
compared to a steel 3x232:


ali 4.4 200b =  -1.45lb  full to +0.42lb at 50bar

steel 3 232b =  -2.3lb   full to -0.74lb at 50bar

So the buoyancy change is less for the ali tanks and they
are a less negative when full.

They won't be pure Al so they might not quite match these figures.
