    Refilling Sodastream & Paintball Cylinders

    there are a few "he's" here - you mean tripo? Or Andy? tripo's tank would indeed be a 'filling tank' with dip tube. Cheers, Nathan.

    Refilling Sodastream & Paintball Cylinders

    Hey Andy, Is anything really over the top? :party: Wow 22kg, that'd be tricky :) With me, due to current fridge size restrictions, I'm actually considering using paintball cylinders for everything for a while. So considering options like this one sound better than getting a dedicated fill...

    Refilling Sodastream & Paintball Cylinders

    Hey Andy you invert your cylinder to fill don't you? I've not filled without a fill cylinder before, so am just a little wary of an upside down 6kg tank o'gas :P Cheers, Nathan.

    Refilling Sodastream & Paintball Cylinders

    Thanks mate, good to hear from a pro! As you are probably aware from the thread, we don't do this for coin so any tips from someone who does 600 in a weekend are great! However, be careful making blanket statements like "A paintball CO2 can is 28 ounces once full" as you more than I would...

    When To Refill Gas?

    Hey milob40 Do you know if those Ozito cylinders have been EOL'd? They are pretty much just paintball cylinders aren't they? Is that your sodastream adapter I spy on the Ozito cylinder? Cheers, Nathan.

    3 Day Carb?

    9 Litre Corny's 'cheapish?' And Mobile Setups

    After reading all these when it was first posted, I was more than a little worried. However, I ordered 4 on 10th January, got em on the 24th Jan. Not rubbing it in, just recounting my experience. The seller is very responsive and communicative. The main thing that I found was the confusion...

    9 Litre Corny's 'cheapish?' And Mobile Setups

    PayPal might lag, but more importantly they want to make a cut either way. When it was right on US$1:AU$1 they were making margin both ways. I guess they are after all, a business.

    Soda Stream Connection

    YMMV but there are plenty of paintball supply places about that sell CO2 paintball cylinders, just Google for your closest. As to the process of filling, it be a little dangerous - as in almost in the category of "if you have to ask.." There are guides on paintball sites, and youtube, or you...

    Refilling Sodastream & Paintball Cylinders

    Thanks Andy - I've seen from other threads you have an idea what you are talking about, so you may know this, (ie. don't mean to "teach you how to suck eggs"), - are you pre-chilling the cylinder at all? CO2 flows to the coldest area, fill tank should be room temp, and either chill your empty by...

    Soda Stream Connection

    I think I can handle not refilling the sodastream bottles, as you can get paintball canisters for a bargain in a number of sizes. BUT the convenience of buying a sodastream full of CO2, using it - then refilling it is pretty good.

    Odd Cig Regulator Connector

    Hey Dave, Just an update, looks like our local Gas & Gear store has the correct inlet stem on the shelf.... about $42 though. Will be heading there on Saturday, to pick it up, so will ask about 1/4" NPT plugs also. Both my CIG reg's have one on the spare high-pressure ports also :) Thanks...

    Refilling Sodastream & Paintball Cylinders

    Ok, secondary question on this. As I was away last week, got my mail & parcels all in one go. My sodastream adapter turned up! Are all sodastream adapters 'created equal'? I've seen pics here on AHB from when these were new.... umm 2004-2006? They had the adjustable length centre valve...

    Refilling Sodastream & Paintball Cylinders

    Hey all, My sodastream adapter is on the way, and during the waiting time, I got to thinking, dangerous I know. I have a standard type-30 -> type-30 "refill station" for my smaller 540g bottle. So I was wondering, could you use the sodastream adapter to refill a Sodastream or Paintball...

    Odd Cig Regulator Connector

    Would anyone know if it might be possible to remove the high pressure gauge (and plug the hole of course). I know it's 'possible' - what I guess I mean, is would the reg still function without it? I want to use this as my travel/party reg; so trying to pair it down. cheers, Nathan.

    Dave, You sir are a legend... Now. To find a BOC store/dealer nearby that'll stock them. (couldn't find the replacement inlet stem on their site) Cheers, Nathan.
