Dang it! You all jinxed me. Two of my 5ib tanks just ran dry in back-to-back days. I already had one sitting empty. Good thing I have plenty of spares. I'll be hitting the refill shop next week.

It looks like tariffs have taken their toll on these as well. The Vevor 5ib tanks were commonly priced at $50 on Amazon but I see they are now over $65. Still your best bet for a new tank. Otherwise, keep an eye on FB marketplace as there's regularly homebrewers getting rid of gear. Anything below $55 is OK but ask them the cert date. If older than 5 years you'll have to get a recert before filling which is another $30 at least. Some places that do swaps will swap one past it's cert date though.Where is everyone's favorite source for used and discount CO2 tanks?

.....also, avoid the heavy steel tanks and stick to aluminum.

Yeah, I saw a full 5lb pop up for $40 but it was sold within minutes of being posted.
