 I don't think you can totally empty them. that might be the weight difference. 
 

 After I've emptied them and move them, I can still hear water sloshing it it.

I always wanted to weigh them, but didn't feel like destroying a scale in the 
process. ;-)

 Definitely. 
  
 In my current house, it's on a platform in the attic close to the attic 
stairs, which are in the garage.  It will be relatively easy to change when the 
time comes. 
  
 We're replaced more heaters due to sediment than to actually breaking down.  
Anyone notice how much heavier an old heater is than the new one?  It's not all 
due to construction differences.
