Strengths:

Weaknesses:
Cant remember which ways on/off
Review:
This is the best valve on the market today and is so cheap, that your wouldn't believe it. It actually shuts off the co2 flow from the tank to the gun, saving air and oring life. If you are a co2 user, a must so you don't get sprayed with the unscrewing action! Easy to use but difficult to remember it you left it on or off.
er...
normal tanks?
burst disks?
pins?

Strengths:

Weaknesses:
None, its great.
Review:
Well, I jacked my friends co2 tanks a few months ago, and it had a turn off valve. I thought it was awsome(thats why i took it lol). Just recently my friend Ricky told me it was a smart parts product and I felt stupid. Don't forget to turn it off before you take it off, i made that mistake and lost a whole 20oz tank :[. And lke the other guy said, it makes it funny to see your friends unscrew quickly so they dont lose air haha.
Conclusion:
Great Idea

Review:
This came installed on my very first tank w/ an anti-siphon tube - a 20 oz from Action Village.
Worked flawless for 2 years until i upgraded to a better gun & hpa. Never leaked & the on/off worked well every time. It wasn't until i let my cousin use it on a spare Spyder Sonix another cousin gave me that it had a problem - the o-ring sealing it to the tank broke/deteriorated/disappeared.
Freaked me out because my cousin was standing in front of me with the back of the tank facing me when it happened. I grabbed the gun & wedged it between the ground and a wooden post so if the tank had shot off, it'd go into the ground while the gun would've got stuck in the post, maybe. Then i just let all the co2 bleed out.
EDIT: Had it repaired last month & filled yesterday. Working great again.
Conclusion:
Good thing to have for those stock (or nearly stock) blowbacks like my backup AMG.

People say it needs to professionally installed...HAHA....All you do is screw it on what more do you need?? This product works for me and for mostly every1 else...It is a good product and you should buy it if you wanna save money in the long run....Without it when you unscrew your tank it leaks some out so buy this and it wont leak....The only problem i had with this is that it doesnt tell you which way is on or off but i said lefty lusy righty tity!

20oz. CO2 w/On-Off Valve
Strengths:
Variety of Colors
Save CO2

Weaknesses:
None at all
Review:
This is a must for any paintballer with a CO2 tank.
It will save you an endless ammount of CO2, you will get at least 25-50 more shots out of your tank (dosent sound like alot, ut trust me out on the field 3 shots can make a difference)
If you hate that extra CO2 left in your marker, or even if your not, you need this valve. Just trun it off, take like 4 shots and your gun is out of CO2. Just simply unscrew your gun at any pace and no CO2 will be wasted or blown into your face.
I have had this valve for arround 2 years now, and I cannot begin to tell you the money i save. I have to get my tank filled up alot less times, i blow alot less O-Rings, which add up in the end. I have had a 20oz tank for roughly 5 years now, and before I got the valve, I replace an O-Ring 1 or 2 times every day I played. I have had my valve for 2 years now, and no lie, havent had to replace the O-Ring once. Total money saver!
Conclusion:
If you have a CO2 tank, you need this. GO BUY ONE
Rating is a 10 because it saves you alot of money for a cheap price. No more wasted air or blown O-Rings.

Review:
I really enjoy this item. i have been using it for a while now and i personally enjoy them. i have one on my 20oz and my 12oz. the only problem that i have encountered was the small o-ring that is about 2 cm in diameter. this is the o-ring that stops the air from coming out of the tank, not the 2 ones that are on the pin that you twist. this one o-ring may get nicked, causing air to leak. it is easy to replace. just take it out, put some oil on the new one (sometimes you can just flip the old one) and put it in. it isn't that big of a deal, you may want to buy some spare o-rings for backup, but it still beats replacing the regular tank o-rings.
Conclusion:
I would defiantly get one. it may not have a place to put a gage on it, so get a bullet dropforward and put one on it. i put a 9 because of the small o-ring problems.

Review:
This on/off pin vavle is an excellent way to savve o-rings and co2. Before I had this product I used to bleed my tanks off, which takes more co2 and your not guareteed to save your o-ring then. his product doesn't really have any weaknesses. One thing I did notice though, is that on some Spyder models, the on/off valve is located directly under the grip making is hard to acsess. This is probably for the best however, as if not you could accidently bump it shutting off your co2 supply. It would also be in danger of snagging on a tree and breaking off. Even a nasty fall on the ground could provoke this dreadful accident. So thats why they chose to make the threads like this I guess, to avoid such and incident. All in all this is a great product, it doesn't affect the way you handle your tank. The finish is nice on this product as well.
Conclusion:
If your tired of replacing broken o-rings or you want to save those last precxious shots you get from conserved co2 purchase this product.
Spyder Xtra All American Barrel Empire ReLoader 20 oz Co2 w/ on/off
Strengths:
It doesnt leak
Easy to use
Easy on O-rings
Weaknesses:
None
Review:
When i first bought my co2 tank it didnt have the on/off valve and maybe it was just me but when i unscrewed it from my marker it seemed to waste a lot of co2. I went out and bought the on/off valve and it worked great. for only 30bucks it did exactly what i wanted... all you do is tunr it off shoot a couple times and there is no co2 left in the gun.
Conclusion:
Does exactly what it is supposed to without leaking

Saves o-rings and makes your tank look wicked cool.
Weaknesses:
Uhh Nothing!!!!!!!!!
Review:
These are like the best valves ive ever used. I don't not what the heck these other guys are talking about them leaking because they don't. They work well with the anti-siphon tubes also. If you get sick of unscrewing you tank and hearing all the co2 come out of your hose and stuff well heres the answer.These make you tanks look cool but if u get one i suggest you get the anti-siphon tubes for the ultimate co2 tank.
