Weaknesses:
Lower piston oring failure - read review below
Review:
ive owned a total of 4 PE tanks and they have all worked like a dream, the piston oring failure i mentioned above happened to 2 of the 4. my 68 3k tank failed last month when its manufactureing date was 9/02 and my 88 4500 failed last week when its man. date was 4/02. all i did was call pmi both times and they sent new orings out ASAP. i used my 88 4500 last week on my little brothers spyder e99 and got 1000 shots out of 1500 psi thats pretty tough to beat.
Conclusion:
awesome product. ive heard horror stories about every brand of tank but PMI takes care of their customers. ive owned 4 and will continue buying PMI tanks, im very pleased with all of them

48/3000 PMI pure energy nitro tank
Evil Smokestack
Strengths:
Way more consistant than Co2
Weaknesses:
Heavy and you need to refil a lot
Review:
The 48/3000 is a great tank for $80. It is way better than Co2. The only weaknesses are that it is really heavy and you need to refil a lot. not enough words this is a good tank still not enough words buy this tank still not enough words why won't it accept my damn review
Conclusion:
Get this if you are on a budget. But if you have an extra 100 bucks, definetly go with something fiber wraped. I give it a nine because of the weight.

Strengths:
Only 110 bucks, and it's Nitro
Weaknesses:
HEAVY AND BIG
Review:
I bought this tank for 110, and I was happy until I put it on my gun and realized how heavy it was. Now I think I should have spend 50 more bucks and bought a fiber-warped tank. But it does what it should and I'm still happy with my large @$$, heavy as H*!! Nitro tank.

Strengths:

Weaknesses:
Leaked at first
Review:
I got this tank as a give just over a month ago and at first it gave me no problems.
However, after owning it for 2 weeks I got a new fill and then two days later I took my gun out to test test some new gear. I was shocked to see that my tank was now at 0 psi! I took it to the shop and they explained to me that the thread sealent had been damaged and they replaced the nipple and gauge and used some of their own sealant. Hasn't leaked since.
Now, on to the rest of the review. This tank is very consistant and lightweight. It's been working just fine since the leak was fixed and I have no complaints.
Conclusion:
I've heard of other PMI tanks leaking but never of any other tanks such as crossfire or centerflag tanks going. If I could do it again I'd pick one of those up for sure.

Strengths:
Consistent
Cheap
screw it right in, no mounting stuff needed
Weaknesses:
Heavy, but it is 72 cu aluminum and an entre level to nitro tank.
Review:
This is a great tank for someone who wants to go nitro. It is not for someone goin right into paintball, but no nitro tank is. It is a little on the heavy side, but as long as you get those mussles up youll have not trouble. It is good and well worth the $115 i spent. Its not Angle Air or the Evil Scion, but then again its not 350 to 500 dollars. Just a good tank to get if you are thinkin of startin nitro.
Conclusion:
Get this if your goin nitro for the first time. Dont get it if you are brand new to paintball. If you already have a nitro, and want a nicer one, this probably isnt it, but nothin bad with this tank at all. Overall great product.

Weaknesses:
no problems really
the fiber glass isnt as smooth as others but its ok
Review:
This is a very nice tank. It has never failed on me any day that i play {and i play alot :} .
The only complaint that i have was that mine was leaking air from the nipple. It was an easy fix thought put some teflon tape on it and it was ready to go. The 68 3000 is a great size not to big and it holds a fair amount of air.
Conclusion:
This product is great. I would recommend this to any one who does not want to spend a fortune on n2 tanks.
From the day I first used this tank (47/3000) it leaked after I unscrewed it from the asa. It wont even hold a tank fill for more than a day. Its not leaking from the gauge, but from the pin valve. This is the second tank I've had to get from them because the first tank did the same as well.
Conclusion:
I just bought a Nitro Duck 68/3k fiberwrapped. Im so happy woth it, im kicking myself for not buying it forst.

Weaknesses:
seems to leak a little
Review:
I got this tank for my bday and it is great. It serves my purposes. Seriously if youre in a game shootin from behind a bunker is it really gonna make that big of a difference if one ball drops an inch infront of the ball before it. NO. this tank is great and serves my purposes. yes I laugh that my tank costs more than my gun but its worth it. the tank is light and has a good reg. ALso is the PMI customer service which is second to none. My reg seems to leak a little just cuz i had 2500 psi in my tank and a week later i only had 2000 but i think that inevitable. i would make this tank your next upgrade if your still using co2.
Conclusion:
IF I WANTED ANGEL AIR I WOULD STRAP A GAME BOY TO MY TANK great tank good value isnt 300 dollars "worse" than the supposid "high end" tanks

PMI Pure Energy 68/3000 tank
very good tank, had for a year now, and no problems at all except the gauge is kinda craked and has a very very slow leak, but it really doesnt hurt performance at all, just make sure to keep the gauge safe. make sure to get a nipple cover too, getting sand and stuff in the fill nipple will bring you lots and lots of trouble. make sure to get a tank cover too because the tank can ding pretty easily. consistant air flow to the gun, no real drop off.
Conclusion:
a great, inexpensive air tank. this is the perfect first tank for anyone, it holds plenty of air and works great without needing any adjusting. great buy, lots of value for dollar. i olny wish i had gotten a bigger one...68/4500, that woulda been sweet.
