Flatline or Dynaflow?

[Shirow]

I'll be buying my new tank next week. Flatline or Dynaflow and why?

[Puddleglum]

Well, unless you are gonna get a 4500 Flatline then I think the DynaFlow would be better. I personally love CenterFlag and have been really pleased with their regs. I say go with the DynaFlow unless you can get a 4500 Flatline.

i own and sell Dynaflows. i own one for my gun and love it, and i have sold about 10 in the past year...the people ive sold them to LOVE THEM TO DEATH!!!

although, i have heard great things bout the flatline

[Shirow]

They would both be 68/4500.

flatline, hands down, i hated my dynaflow

[Shirow]

What did you hate about it?

[Cliffio]

i hated the on/off, it spiked when it got low on air

it was just a pain

[Shirow]

Those both sound annoying

used my 88cu 4500psi flatline last sunday for the first time and loved it. the only bad thing is that turning it off does not degas the gun like the dyna flow. i heard that dyna flows creep in pressure that is whi i got the flatline. anyway once i attached that flatline to my emag i realized that they were made for each other.

[Shirow]

yeah I will get a proconnect to fix that

[Cliffio]

ever thought about a max-flow?

my recommendation would be to go with the dynaflow. The on/off also degasses the line that goes into your valve. And there have also been numerous problems on this board and a few others regarding problems with Flatlines. But if you want the most consistant i would say taht the max-flow is going to be that, because it is dual regulation. But that also means lowers air flow. So i guess my ultimate choice would be for the dynaflow..

any air system is going to double reg your gun

[Shirow]

Don't want a Max-Flo, won't buy Smart Parts on principle. Plus the reg is way too big.

I have two AGD certified techs at my local field so I'm not too worried about non-fatal Flatline problems. Just wanted to know if the flatline or dynaflow reg was better.

I have 2 dynas... Great regs, and small as heck. I had creep also, but I dont seem to get it anymore. maybe it was dirt or something. as the tank pressure drops the output rises... But almost all regs do that. Dynas seem to exagerate it slightly.

I would recommend them, BUT a flatlines is a bulletproof reg also. both good choices IMO
