co2 starts as liquid and expands to gas. When there is room, it expands. The expansion chamber slows down the liquid co2 to give it more time to expand. Cold weather causes the liquid to expand much slower than a nice sunny day.

An expansion chamber will help you a little. A palmer stabalizer (regulator) will do better than an expansion chamber. The best thing to do is to get an HPA (High Pressure Air) tank. HPA tanks take the already gas air that you breathe and bottle it up. HPA has less pressure fluxuation than co2 causing better consistency.

helping phil out about prices and ratings

HPA (or LPA with LPK)

good choice, but both systems cost around $200

Palmers Regulator

Awesome for co2 if you have the money ($60-110)

Expansion chamber

Pretty cheap and a really good option with co2 ($30-40)

Anti Siphon

The best bet if your a little low on cash any paintball shop has them and will install for you ($15-25)

Remote

They are alright, but players get stuck when playing with them and get wrapped up in the cord, and can only be used with a pod harness that will hold the co2 tank. ($10-30) pod pack($10-25)

what?
