I'v never used the Dye Throttle but most players use or recommend Crossfire. It seems to be one of the most popular HPA brand.

I have 2 Dye Throttle tanks and my wife has one too. They're the best tanks I've used. Consistant, cool looking and very light. They only have two major flaws: the stock O-ring needs to be replaced AND the threads are soft aluminum so you have to be careful when your screwing in your tank.

But what I do I do because I like to do.

The Throttle isn't worth the extra $$. It's a good tank but not worth $200+. You can get the best preset tank for about $189. That's the Nitro Duck Plasma. Just get that if you're willing to spend $200+ on a tank. Then you can buy a tank cover with the $$ you saved.
