air a merica sent me a new spring pack that was customized for me. they loosened it so that i could get higher pressures at lower pressures left in my tank, because i have a mag and mags need high pressures. has anyone else had this problem? if so you should call up air america and ask them for a loosened spring pack. thwy have great customer service. check it out.

That makes no sense.

your probably right. i can reach higher output pressures when my tank has less air left in it. does that make sense?

it takes a little imagination, but i think he means it helps a mag shoot farther into the tank :confused:

If I recall on AA website it says it takes 1150 pounds in the tank to have constant output of 800 pounds - this was off the top of my head, the numbers may be off a bit but it did kind of worry me - this step in AA customer service has me back to very seriously considering them as the tank for my Devilmag, especially if I can get the body bag series with a 45/45 on it.

Note: There were still up there.. this just helps more

yes, creative mayhem. it allows me to shoot farther into the tank and keep the output pressure up, enough for the mag to keep functioning.
as lowman said above, it takes a certain amount of pressure to keep a consistent 800 psi output. well they loosened the spring pack so it takes less pressure to keep a consistent 800 psi output.

While we are discussing AA tanks, does there on-off also bleed the air from the lines are do I have to come up with a way to do this?

With the Armageddon my Emag will shoot down to 550psi according to the gauge. I don't think I can improve on that with my marker.

It does not. It is just an on/off. You will need a Pro-Connect or slide check to bleed the lines.

i have a quick disconnect. i shoot the rest of the air out of the line and then wait a few minutes for the line to empty.

I'm familar with what a slide check is, what is a pro-connect? Im going to use macro line, sorry about the stupid questions on this, adjustable tanks are new to me.

oh, I misunderstood your talking about on/off

a proconnect is a quick disconnect with a check valve in it. Break the connection and it degasses one side and holds pressure on the other. Put the pressurized side on the tank and the degassing plug on the other and you can keep your tank on and set at the correct pressure while your marker is degassed.

So.. if you use macro line what do you use to degas a tank, or is there a better tank out there for use with macro line?
