Tanks haven't really changed, although I don't know why anyone would be concerned over 40lbs. What has really improved are dive lights. You can get LED primary lights now that are quite bright with excellent battery life so you can see all the colors.
I was concerned because I was mostly shore diving. I hadn’t considered LEDs being used for dive lights and appreciate the link.
I've done shore dives with double tanks that weigh over 100lbs. Seriously 40lbs is nothing to be concerned about.
