    Question on Internal Regulator Piston

    I was just wondering if the regulator piston breaks on extreme pressure? I was wondering because my back velocity adjuster is leaking air bad now even after I changed the oring on the piston. I ordered a new one today. Was just wondering if anyone had to change theirs because they turned the velocity up too high. I had mine full blast when testing level 10. Not sure if this is why I broke it. Most likely though. Any thoughts or information would be great.

    There are a few causes for leaks there. One is a bad piston/oring. Another is a bad reg seat. It'll also leak if your velocity is too high.
