Nitrous guys

What do you guys use to keep bottle pressures up?


Bottle heater?
Torches?


Nitrogen push setup?

All you nitrogen push guys tell me about your setups and how you like it over the former




Thanks!
Chris

bottle heater, NEVER use a freaking torch it will weaken the aluminum and you can get a tank rupture. dynotune has a nice heater that is what i have. it is pressure referenced not temperature referenced

I run the NANO setup and love it. Only frustrating part can be finding a place to get it filled. I have the 4500psi kit which not very many shops around me fill. They have a 3000psi kit now which most paintball shops can fill to.

Easy and consistent. Pressure does not drop during the run or in between runs. Before the Nano I was trapping 119 on the 100 shot but now with it, trapping 121+ and thats with issues off the line unrelated to the push system itself.

Most paintball places are stepping up to 4500psi as that's the trend with CF tanks. If you're only getting compressed air (pb guns don't actually use nitrogen) they can probably help you out.

I use torches, bottle heaters, and if the bottle is really cold, fill your bath tub with about 5 inches of hot water and stand it up in there for about 15 minutes...it'll warm it right up....

Nano systems will keep your bottle pressure @ 1050PSI. At the end of a pass pressure will be in the hi 900's. Like others have already stated. Most paintball places are capable of filling a 4500 PSI bottle.
