    Max Flo are a pain in the butt to maintain. They are good when they are working but you have to take them apart and lube them with Dow 33 every couple of times you take it to play.

      Hmmm, I've only had a problem with one of my max flos ever. And that was a simple o-ring change (The on/off o-ring). I have only needed to grease the reg maybe every 5-6 months. This being with team practice every weekend in shizznizzy AZ micro fine pow-dirt getting in everything. I've loved every single one of my max flos. The only thing that I can think of to complain about is the weight, which I never notice while playing anyway.

        Personaly I like the Max-Flo for low pressure use. I have one on my Impuse and it's great. On the other hand, my team mate had one on his SFL and it gave him a lot of problems when he ran it at 800-900psi. This is only one example so it could have been a fluke.

          Well I personally have had very little trouble with either of my 2 MaxFlow Systems. I lube them up every few months and they just keep ticking away. What I like best about them is the high flow rate that keeps up with any rapidfire on my RT's. Check the sig

            the maxflow is the best tank you can buy, in my opinion. you do have to lube 1 or 2 things every once in a while, but that keeps it running great. its the only tank i trust when i single reg my guns

              Maxflo's are really good consistant tanks, but if you want a high pressure tank for a mag, I reccommend a Dynaflow. They work excellent at high pressures, and have an exclusive on/off that bleeds the whole line and gun valve. No more pro-connects or slide checks.

                There is 3 guys on my team with max flos, and 2 shot xmags and one shots the ghetto emag, not had one problem out of them.

                And we all have great consitence out of them. Of course we run them at around 700 psi also so...

                  i am about to buy the old style maxflo for 150 but it needs to be hydroed. Is that a good deal? hopefully it will work dope with my mag.

                  are they heavy??

                    if it passes hydro, that is a great deal. if it doesn't pass, you have $150 paperweight.

                    ofcourse if it doesn't pass you can just buy a new tank to put on it. about $150. still less than the cost of a new maxflo.
