How do you tell if a valve will accept a ult kit. I was under the assumption that all emag valves accepted it. But recently saw a forsale thread stating "does not accept ult" This got me thinking. I have been unable to get one of my emag valves functioning. It has a ult kit i put in it. Maybe it shouldnt be in it. A picture of what im looking for would be the most helpfull.

If you look at that picture, you can see a small o-ring in the on/off assembly, and surrounding it is shiny metal, so basically it's sitting in a shelf cut into the metal. Now then, if you have a valve that can use a ULT it will have this metal part missing, and replacing it is a larger o-ring on the outside of the small one in the picture, in the E-Mag's case, it's a black quad o-ring if i remember correctly. Basically, if you have two orings in the bottom of your on/off you can use one, and E-Mags are able to use ULTs.

I see you have an old RT valve there. I thought the old RT was the only valve that had that configuration, and as such was the only valve that would not physically accept the ULT. Were there others?

I think the ReTro valve can't take the ULT either. Right now i don't have any valves that can take it, as i only have that RT valve you see in the picture.

Actually, i just went to their site, Retro valves can't take this upgrade without a modification either.
