Can anyone point me to the applicable  regulation for the "requirement" for a pressure test for oxygen  bottles?

  

 This has the "smell" of an OSHA requirement and I  am trying to determine its applicability (if any) to small portable ones used in  private aircraft. Thanks.

I believe  it's a DOT reg.

 There is a way around this rule.  Fill your own cylinder.  But I would never

 skimp on this safety regulation just to save a few bucks every five years.

 There are places to save and places not to save.  This is one where you

 follow the rules.

3AA bottles are due every 5 years.

 Most over looked item in an aircraft

It is a DOT requirement to have the bottles checked  at regular inatervals. If I recall the steel bottles are good for 5 years  betweeen checks and no life limit. Them light weight ones are I think  3 years and some thing like a 20 Year service life. If you have an out  of date bottle you most likely will not find anyone to fill it.
