    Here are a few more tests, just to show what I'm seeing and where the project is at testing wise, I don't think its a final design.

    My camera batteries were low so I wasn't picky on the video I kept, they died after the last test so this is it for now.

    Retro Valve with 0.74" on/off pin>


    Retro Valve #2 with 0.75" on/off pin. 40 psi to OLTR. Full RT effect, I cuffed a few times but didn't have the camera batter to re shoot.


    Retro Valve #2 0.75" on/off pin about 43-44 psi boarder line full RT which my lazy finger like.

      As much as I would love to see whats going on I would advise Luke not to post pictures of the internals. Atleast until they are selling. Which then at some point a buyer is gonna take one apart and show everyone.

      The reason is simple. There are people like me out there that can reverse engineer from a picture to a very good degree. Now unlike myself some will not have the decency to not reverse engineer it. I know lukes put alot of time into this and I would hate to see anyones design copied. Having your design copied is NOT flattering its a violation.

      Fyi for anyone: Never post a straight picture/rendering of your design. Especially before you make it. Always have it skewed. Wont stop someone but makes it alot more difficult.

        Agreed 100%, me too.

        However the internals are not a huge secret nothing magical there. The big deal is the attitude of the guy demanding to see then throwing a temper tantrum when he didn't get his way. I don't feel I'm under any obligation to share anything I don't want to. Actually the post was no big surprise, if anything I got a little laugh out of it.

          TBH I really haven't tried to dial these in real tight, I was more concerned about basic function over ridge fine tuning. I did do some more tests after you ask about it and was able to remove a bunch to travel with the lower set screw, actually the screw wasn't long enough, I could have taken more out.

          I'll spend more time on that as I start to dial these in.

            I haven't read through the whole thread yet so forgive me if I've missed something... But PLEASE ADD ME TO THE LIST!

            Assuming this will fit an Intelliframe at some point I'm in! Put me down for 1 please.

            *EDIT* Ok. Now I've read the whole thread... No change to my preliminary sentiment. */EDIT*

                I like that trigger the best of your 3 options.

                When do you get time to restore old vehicles ?

                        It's a huge challenge making time for anything personal that's shop related! I've been trying to keep weekends open for the truck build but it's hit or miss and general only a few hours of work at a time...

                          Here's a Classic valve test. The on/off seems a little slow, I tend to cuff it some but I can't really walk a trigger anyway. It works on the same settings as the other valves.

                          Thanks goes out to Scott for donating the valve to test!

                            I regret selling my gforce mag, I regret selling the cheater. I'll regret selling this someday too

                              I don't have a ton of pneumag experience so this might be a stupid question.
                              In the vid clip where you have the LPR set at 44 psi, are you also using a SHP tank or standard output?
                              If you are standard tank this is a no brainier for me, I hate having to have three separate tank for different output pressures.
                              I like having the novelty of going full rt once in awhile but typically play with a normal pressure.
                              I could sell my SHP tank and this would almost save me money (rationalizing)
