I saw one today and was wondering what everyone thought of them.

Also what would be a good 45/45 ?

I've never heard anything good about a java tank other then the price...

They have problems with stripped threads, and aren't very consistant.

I got a 68/3000 as part of a ebay deal for an Angel. After I used it twice the pin valve started leaking. There isnt a practical way to service the reg, so I ended up keeping the tank itself and replacing the reg.

I would stay away from them. I think there are better choices out there for the money. Remember, you get what you pay for in most cases.

I had a Java 68/45 for a while. It started leaking through the gauge, so I replaced that. Then it started leaking through the pin valve. The PBSG rebuilt the pin valve for me (spring? gasket?) and I sold it right away, and got a nice new but 2-yr-old Armageddon adjustable off ebay for <$200.
