I have looked at a lot of the posts and logs and how tos on this site andmost of them use 15 PSI as the pressure needed to sterilize various things.The only PC's for sale in my area have a max PSI of 10.I was wondering if 10 is goodenough and you just have to extend sterile.izing times or if I should not even bother with them and do some traveling (at least 100 miles ) to find one th sat goes to 15.I have seen mentioned a few times in some of the TEKs but i figured that maybe those [people were just at really low altitudes.Also has anyopne had any experience with the Presto brand PCs.Those seem to be the only ones around the area I live.I know AAs the best but ATM I cannot get one of those,if ayone knows of another brand that is sold at any of the larger dep stores scattered actoss the country please let me know.As always thank you for your time and input.

If you're open to ordering online...

Look for the AA921. It should be perfect for whatever you're looking to do.

> I was wondering if 10 is goodenough
Yes. Increase all sterilization times by 50% when using 10 psi instead of 15 psi.
Also, for every 1000 ft above 2000 ft elevation, increase the cooking time by 5%.
