    flatline or maxflo?

    I am going to be purchasing a new tank system here in the next couple weeks.

    I know both are high flow and both have 4500PSI. what I am concerned with is the on/off. I know the flatline has the easiest on/off out there, is it reliable? the reason I ask is I have heard that the max-flo on/off can be a pain. leaks and broken o-rings causing it to fail. is this true?

    which is better?

      i like the flatline more because it is AGD and it has a higher output pressure i think that max flows only go about 600psi

          flatline on/off is better, max flow is more susceptable to leaks. I own bothe and if its the on/off your concerned about, get a Flatline. Both go high pressure if you get the HP version (for a maxflo) 1000 PSI or better anyhow.

          You will be happy either way

              i believe the newer max-flos come with both high and low pressure springs.

                  I have a maxflow, never had a flatline, but I can say that it's not too bad. Nice on off, a simple lever, but the reg really is prone to leaks. Yesterday I gassed it up a few times and you need just the right pressure in order for it to work right. I love it though.

                      i just got a 68/45 flatline and love it
                      i have owned many tanks and this is by far the best.
                      and if you are looking into buying one most places are out of stock i got mine from
                      https://www.paintballoutlet.com

                      first time i ordered from them and i was very impressed

                          i think the flatline is the Best all around tank.

                          like with the flatline everything comes together.. now hear my out

                          Maxflows-big reg
                          Apoc-on/off is really stiff (Really)
                          geddon, no "real" on off
                          raptor, no real on off at all
                          Air, more of a lp tank? (i only heard that)

                          macdev (sp?) heard was awesome but never even seen in real life.

                          nitroduck, slower recharge? brass regs..

                          i have such bad luck with presets so i wont even go there.

                          but out of... Crossfire, pmi, AA, and agd... by far the flatline was alot better for me

                                  i have always hated the design of the reg for the max-flos. the new ones look like they will be more compact though.
