I'm sure Crossfire could hook you up if you contacted them.

You are talking about the actual TANK REG right? Like you have the bottle but no reg for it?

They sell em on pbnation alot, you could go to a proshop(atleast mine), and get a mini max flo.

Or send it to crossfire and get one of theirs

i found one here:

whats the diffrence between high pressure and low pressure regs?

i have a 3000psi 72cu tank. i operate at 325psi.   if i get one, how would i go about taking off my tank screw. (the top piece)

Tippya5,

You have been here long enough now to post, at this point, 377 messages to the forums, and you have not learned how to do a search yet?

All the HPA tanks contain High Pressure Air. It is regulated down to marker operating pressures by the regulator, called a primary regulator, located in the valve mechanism on the neck if the bottle. There are two standard bottles available, a high pressure output and a low pressure output. High pressure reg output is ~850 psi. Low pressure output is about 400 psi. (there are also tanks that have adjustable regulators on them).

If your marker is operating at 325 psi then you must be using a secondary regulator to control gas pressure before it enters the marker. If you have a secondary regulator then you can probably use either a high or low output tank.

There are also high and low pressure secondary regulators. A high pressure secondary regulator regulates from 0 to ~1000 psi (and higher in some cases). So it can adjusted and used on markers that are considered either high pressure or low pressure, or anywhere in between.

A low pressure secondary regulator has a typical adjustment range of 0 psi to about 400 psi. If you are running a marker that operates on low pressure, a low pressure output secondary regulator will give just a tad more uniformity shot to shot that a high pressure output reg adjusted down to the low pressure level. But, either will work.

one more question. how do i screw off the valve on my tank? I tryed twisting it off but it didn't seem to budge. Is there a screw or something? I read something... it sayed that the threads are backwords on the tanks..and you have to you heat to get it off...and you use thread locker to put it back on...is this true? I just dont want to do something wrong and the tank to blow up. I looked at some posts, some people use heat to get the thread locker off. I heard some storys about people using heat on there scuba tanks; it later blew up. if i took it to my scuba store could they change the valve? (they sell/fill paintball tanks)

-i called my paintball shop and thy dont sell the valves so i dont thing that they would install one for me. wouldn't a scuba store do it?

-once i get this thing on my tank, would a have a more consistent shot? i have a secoundary reg set to 325psi.

I had my local shop install a Conquest reg (sex on wheels) that I bought from another store, and they put it on with no fuss. Business is business.

What tank reg do you have now?

i dont have a tank regulator. i have a 3000psi 72cu tank with a standard tank valve. i would think buying a tank reg would make my shots more consistent.

Same thing as on that tank?

hybrid-sniper wrote: Same thing as on that tank?

yes. its a standard valve with the guage (that pic looks like my tank)

hybrid-sniper wrote: It's a preset reg, meaning you can't adjust it. Your output is 800-850 psi.

oh. but if i got the reg http://guerrillaair.com/store/product_info.php?cPath=23&products_id=46 - here  then it would be better then the stock and i could adjust it right? people are saying to take it to my shop to get it installed. if my shop wont do it, would my scuba shop do it? (they deal with paintball tank refills and hydrotesting)

That is still preset. If you want an adjustable tank (why you need one, I'm never gonna know) look into a Macdev Conquest.

i found one for 240. but i needed the mounting rails and screws with it. do you have any sites that sell just the reg?

pooperscooper wrote: WHY do you want a tank reg? The secondary reg is fine...

people say that if you have two going that it would be more consistent. i have a fixed reg at 800psi i think. idk.

You need somewhere with just the reg or you need a place for the mounting hardware?

Before you buy, though, 240 is a LOT of cash to spend on something that will give you very little benefit.

on the site it sayed that it needed that stuff. im looking for a regulator for my tank that i can just screw in or install.

Just a regular rail like that one? I'm pretty sure Macdev still sells those direct.

yeah. i fould something. i dont want to get into removing valves and stuff and spending 100+ on regs. the only thing that i dont know for below if it will exept 3000psi. its says for all tanks. i would have to call

Okay... you are really confusing me. But whatever.

Your LPK already has an adjustable reg on it. That's all that thing ^ is.

i want like what your tank has eccept a screw in. heres what i want:

3000psi ->350(screw in reg)->325(secondary reg.) <-somthing like that

the part above will work with a 3000psi tank

ok should i get this or not?

i prob. going to get http://guerrillaair.com/store/product_info.php?cPath=23&products_id=46 - this . i talk to the company and they said when i put this one on, i wouldn't have to use thread locker. i would think getting this would be better since in is aperating at 450-500psi. that way it wont take 800psi and reg down to 325 all at once. it would do this:    3000psi -> 450-500psi -> 325psi

tell me what you think.

you post way to much tippy, you qoute yourself without editing anything or saying anything after it

now, you have a secondary regulater(off the tank) going to 325psi, so, the first reg(on the tank) should be > 325 psi,(800 currently for you)

so, that reg on the gun, either way, will make the air going into the gun 325psi, the higher the first reg puts out, the less likely the chance the second reg will get less air than it needs

my guage on the tank doesn't work and the one want is alittle better and it has more fetures. yeah i could change my guage but i already did that 3 times. i think my valve is going.

ps: i tryed editing them. but something went wrong. look at my threads, it changes..
