Seeings how they both have the same manual schematic.

Id say they are the exact same valves.

The powertube isnt the valve, so it doesnt count.

The actual real valve valve is the same.

Tippmann refused to sell just the LP valve to me...I was told I had to buy the engire LP Kit. I was eventually able to get the valves and volumizers on Ebay.
