Don't forget that if you want to use one of the "mini" first stages
with only one HP and one LP port, you will also need a tee adapter
to be able to connect both the OPRV and the LP hose to the one LP port.

The total cost for my argon setup came to

£ 48 1.5 litre aluminium cylinder (no valve)
£ 39 Apex first stage
£ 25 tee adapter and OPRV
£ 15 ?? valve for cylinder (I had one spare, so didn't have to buy it)
£ 20 LP hose for drysuit (existing hose now goes on an air-gun, and is
     a also a backup suit inflator if the argon goes)

£147
