    Flatline: 3000 or 4500 psi

    What is the differance? PSI is not a measure of volume, so do they both have the same amount of air? Will two 68ci tanks at differing psi have the same amt of air? Damn! What should I buy!? AAAHHHH!

    PSI-Pounds per Square Inch.

    Since gases are compressible, the higher the pressure, the more molecules of air a tank can hold.

    Since a 4500PSI tank has 50% more pressure than a 3000PSI tank, it can hold 50% more air. Therefore you'll get more shots with the 4500 PSI tank.

        Look at it this way...

        Hi,

        most fields don't even fill to 4500. They mainly go to about 4000-4300

        jedi, in your case I know Steve's fields especially when you play the lake field in the deep 1/2 mile trek to the far dead zone. Get the 4500.

        Now what are the advantages to a 4500. One main advantage. You can get a fill just about everywhere. Whether it s a 3000 or 4500 you know you will still have at least a 68/3K fill.

        Later,
