How can you tell when you C02 tank needs to be hydro tested? I know they are supposed to be tested every 5 years but I'm not sure how to tell how old my bottle is. Here are the numbers from the top of the bottle.

DOT-3AL 1800 B024049
9oz CO2 TC3ALM 124 M5343 08A02

All of my CO2 tanks say "Never needs to be retested" on them.
