Air velocity sport one more question why did you opt to use a multi piece fill station instead of the one piece I've been waiting for from China is there something I should know about like quality, leakage and also the size of my 45 minute tank compared to yours thank you.
TMT COULD YOU PLEASE TELL US THE LINK FOR THE FLOW CONTROL VALVE WHAT SIZE WHAT SPECS SO I CAN FIND ONE WHERE I LIVE THERE IS NOTHING BUT INTERNET TO BUY FROM SO YOU NEED TO KNOW WHAT YOU'RE LOOKING FOR THANKS TMT.
A company in Bolder Colorado that can recertification a tank after the 15 year period to extend the bottle life another 15 years. They were certified by DOT for the Navey and have been release to do it for the public.
As others have asked, where did you buy the parts to make up your fill system, especially the flow control valve?
Where did you pick up that big tank for $200 something?
Nice short to the point video.
Where did you purchase all of the plumbing for your air tank?
Have you heard of acecare tech cylinders much cheaper than omega and air venturi cylinders
I have a question if I have a 22 cc Hpa bottle with throttle valve 3000 psi inlet and 1500 psi outlet, and I have a 74 cubic foot venturi air tank with 4500 psi outlet pressure, I can fill my (HPA bottle with inlet pressure 3000 psi) or I have to put some adapter to my air venturi tank so that the pressure drops to 3000 psi output. I ask anyone who can help since this issue of high pressure must be sure before taking a bad step. and everyone who is well informed with the subject thank you for your experience and your opinion. Thank you
The tanks I'm finding online are like 2002-2004 tanks and they still want a hundred and fifty to $300 for them a 2012 tank is like $700 I'd like to know where you got that one for $30 ? My other question is is there still 7 or 8 years left on it ? you want to sell it for $40 ???
Where did you get that yellowed tank for $30 ??????

I have 5/2006 68cu 3000PSI Pure Energy carbon fiber tank I would use for painball. Can I use this to refill the original tank on my gauntlet? If it does work…What fill station adapter would I need for this tank and how many fills do you think it will give me?
Seal that "chip" with quality cyanoacrylate after using the prep. Just to help it from developing cracks stemming from the damaged spot. Just a little "band-aid" for insurance.
I just noticed I just bought the same exact tank as yours.
I am thinking yours is a rubber boot. I only see 6.7 in and 7.25 in.
Thanks. Does your local scuba shop fill them to 4500 psi or just short like, 4200 psi?
Not made out of the same money that you are, I will hand pump my 1377.
