Nitroduck tanks

[Shirow]

Well, I got my tank today, two problems:

One, it's leaking out of the gauge, so I need to get that fixed

Two, I dropped it on the ground because it was raining and I slipped and now its all scratched up ;(

Well I'll write some more info since people were interested.

Yes, it's a screw in, and it adjusts by a crescent wrench nut that goes around the reg. It comes with a wrench to do it but you can use a regular crescent wrench.

The pressure gauge sucks - it has 5 notches between 800 and 1200 which makes no sense. I ordered a 32 degrees micro to replace it.

The good:

It's light, it's relatively easy to adjust (I don't know how most adjustable tanks adjust, so not sure if it's similar to the others) and it was cheap! $230 for a 68/4500 adjustable!

The bad:

It leaked out of the 1200 gauge
I dropped it on the ground and scratched it
It's hard to adjust once it's pressured up and on the gun, because the nut turns in the same direction the tank unscrews, so you need someone to hold the gun while you hold the tank and adjust the pressure

The guy who sold it to me is going to fix the gauge leak the week after next, since he'll be at World Cup, so I won't be able to test it much more until then - the leak is relatively slow, but fast enough to be annoying. I cranked it up to about 880-900 and I could definitely feel the kick change in the retro. I think I'm going to take it to about 950 max.

I use nitroduck presets pretty much exclusively. I've never had a recharge proble,, the carbon fiber tanks (what I buy) are fairly light, and the thing is built like a tank.
