Just wanted to know what's the minimun output for a HPA tank to work with a classic valve. I've read that for rt valves it's between 800 - 900 psi, but is that the same for classic valves?

The RT valves say 600-800 but will operate up to 3000psi and as low as ~ 500 without significant shoot-down.

The classic valves I am not so sure about.

They are made to use CO2, which varies from 600-1000psi so it is probably the same recommendations.

Reading up the classic valves maintained an inner pressure of 400psi so you should be able to run it that low without significant problems.

If you are running a level 7 bolt, anything above 550 psi will give you good performance. If you are running a level 10 bolt you will want over 700 psi for good performance. For both valves, the higher the pressure you put into the valve, the better the performance you will get.
