Yes the failures this year and last year were the 2013 Clippard White tanks. White tanks from Pneuaire, Andymark and others, along with the Black 2014 Clippard tanks have not had failures to my knowledge.

I also understand the risk of plastic tanks in general but there are also risks with many of the systems and tools that we use in competitive robotics. We need to mange the risks in the smartest ways we can to ensure the safety of the participants and spectators.
