Anyone out there have a trade off chart between tank pressure and tank weight for COPVs? Maybe someone at @CopSub has dealt with this? I was making an estimate but I fear I can't just totally wing it like I had planned haha

In our experience, COPV gain/pain flattens out above 6000 psi and is <1 above 10,000 psi, unless volume constrained like Dragon.
Heating from pressurization & cooling from depressurization also become major problems at very high pressure.
