    The Magic Number Thread

    A few of you might have helped me out with technical stuuf before, but I'm still pumping out the questions...

    What have you guys found as the best input pressure for your mag valves? specifically the x valve?

    What is the norm or standard output presure on Nitro/HPA tanks that are fixed "High Pressure" or fixed "Low Pressure"

    What's your opinion on the best nitro/hpa tanks out there?

    where can I find LPRs that can be hooked up to the pneumatic actuator (the pneumag)?

    what's the operating pressure of the X-Valve?

    What's the basic operating pressure of the pneumag?

    Do any of you own a Lasoya Promaster AND are willing to answer a couple questions (I'll PM you)

    anything above 800psi

    What is the norm or standard output presure on Nitro/HPA tanks that are fixed "High Pressure" or fixed "Low Pressure"
    HP is arround 800-850psi, Lp 450psi I think.

    They are just cocker LPR as far as i know.

    what's the operating pressure of the X-Valve?

    400psi after the reg if i recall, not 100% sure. But need atleast 750-800 to avoid shootdown.

    What's the basic operating pressure of the pneumag?

    Again, not 100% sure, but LPR have a 25psi operating pressure, so I assUme a normal HP tank will do the trick.

      I think it is different from one valve to the next.

      What is the norm or standard output presure on Nitro/HPA tanks that are fixed "High Pressure" or fixed "Low Pressure"

      HP tanks are usually 800 or 850 if they are preset

      ________

      I have a dye throttle, love it. Heard great things about guerrilla air products.

      Any lpr will work.

      ________

      not sure bout that one.

      ________

      What's the basic operating pressure of the pneumag?

      I think you are confused about how pneu's work.

        I like Crossfire's tanks. They {read mine} outputs 800 psi very consistantly (800 until the tank reads "800" whereas my PMI tank will slowly output less and less as the overall pressure drops) and gives me a great feel and good consistancy with my RT.

        On my RT it says 600-800 psi... but if you go over that you get more reactivity in the trigger so I guess it is all personal preference. I believe all the valves take a similar OP.

        For the LPRs, I think any one will work.
        WGP Ticklers and Palmer's Micro-Rocks seem to be popular.

          I just asked Guerilla air a few customer service questions and they are really helpful. Apparently, their air tanks come factory standard with the mythic reg that is set at a grey zone between HP and LP tanks (about 500 psi output) then they have upgrade springs that change it to either HP or LP.

          If the air line between the Hp tank and the X valve had a LPR off to the side that was feeding off of that line would there be too much pressure interferance to maintain that steady input to the valve AND LPR ( example: an air tank has a regulator that puts out a steady stream of 800 psi. there is an air line that goes between the tank and a x-valve. Along that air line there is a three split. one way goes to the HPA tank, one way goes to the x-valve, and a third goes to a LPR.)

          With the above question in mind: does the distance between the LPR and the split in the air line make a difference in flow speed?

          Does a 3 way solenoid require a continuous stream of air to operate an actuator or is it a single dose of pressurized air that stays in the solenoid and actuator and used in a cylce to power the actuator. ( I assume that a continuous stream is required, but I want a confirmation of that )
