roy, you need to remember the transmitter determins when you get the pressure and the accumulator determins how much. It is also true that because the accumulator has a reserve of pressure U/C mechanical up and down locks are rendered unnecessary.

All things considered the extra weight is in the order of 8oz which is the weight of the pump, the valves, the pipes, the cylinders and the oil tank are present anyway.
