I want to get a coiled remote asap, i have a 68ci,4500psi HP tank.

I notice the coiled remotes say Coiled remote with high pressure hose
(2500psi) is good for use with CO2 or High Pressure Bottles. "

Does this mean i cant use this remote cause i have a 4500psi tank...

Im confused but would lovvveeee to setup into a coiled remote use.

It'll work.

HPA tanks are either adjustable, 700-850psi output or 400-500psi output. Unless you have an unregulated nitro tank (which really won't work in the first place) it's fine since all these are below 2500psi. Your tank holds 4500psi of pressure, but it outputs 800psi most likely.

I'm no exspert on nitro, but i'd love to know some stuff about it. I'm too poor to have it.

I know what the First number like the "68ci" but what is the second?

PSI = Pounds Per SQuare Inch

68 CI of space... 4500PSI


gives me about 15 shots per CI so 68 x 15 = 1020

so in reality about 900 shots or more within reasonable settings on a paintball field.

Nitro explained some more:

First is ci...that means "cubic inches" nothing but size of the tank.

Next is psi pounds per square inch, kinda self explanitory. Tanks come in 3000, 3295 (no joke), 4500, and 5000.

Next thing to know is output pressure. There's 850psi output which is about the same as unregulated co2. Works with all guns that work with co2. 400psi preset tanks are for lp guns, and adjustable nitro tanks can work with anything depending on their range of output pressure. Nitro is best (if regulated by another regulator besides the one in the nitro tank) at about 200psi above the other regulator I think. Good adjustable tanks don't need another reg. I could run my cocker without a secondary reg if I had a max flo or something.

Flow rate and consistancy are also important. Flow rate is how fast the nitro tank can output air and consistancy is how stable the psi it outputs is.
