The average aluminum SCUBA cylinder holds 80 cubic feet of air at pressure. That means you are taking the equivalent of a closet's worth of air and smashing it into a cylinder much smaller than that. When full, the cylinder is at 3,000 pounds per square inch of pressure.When the valve is opened, it sends air into the (assumed) first stage regulator which is connected by hoses to gear such as two second stage regulators, instruments and your vest.So the SCUBA tanks don't so much USE the air so much as STORE the air at high pressures.
