if i bought one of the pure energy 5000psi tanks would i still be able to get 4500 fills in it?

yes, but i don't know how many places will offer 5k fills. It just doesn't seem worth it for that extra 500 psi when some places may just not fill that.

yeah, but its kinda pointless to get one of those since most fields can just barely fill to 4500, but who knows about the future.

SC Village can blast the 5000psi.

You'll find the advantage to 5000psi bottles with systems like the Bauer compressors. So you can get a warm 4800psi fill and really get a "true 4500psi" fill.

Mmmm a true 4500 fill would be awesome. Most tourneys give you warm 4000-4500 fills and you end up with 3800. A 5000 would be good to invest in. Like whodares, said you could get a true 4500 fill if they could warm fill it to 4800.

i got a pe 5000psi with thor, but the only reason i bought it was because it was an amzaing deal. you are better off with a 2k1 appoc or 4500 flatline unless ya have a good deal on one

There's quite a few series in Texas filling to 5k. Perfect point on the warm fills, when your tank cools you are getting closer to 45 fills than you do with a straight 45 tank. The PE tanks are pretty good tanks overall, worth checking out for preset screw-ins.
