i assume its a 5000psi its the only pmi bottle of that type i could find - if so they are up for sale at fatbobs at a price of £155 new.

going for 3000psi 0.8 cos 1.5 is just tooooooooo big!

Not really, i have one and its fine...
fits perfectly under ur arm... all you need then is a drop forward if ur bothered bout it too much...
its more about the psi that counts to be honest...

Ah I couldn't really afford it
Picked up an egg with zboard for £24

i would have gone for 1.5 fits more in therefore will last longer and wont run out mid game. these guns can get quite thirsty.

Not really... it depends on the psi of the bottle... the size in litres has nothing to do with how much air it holds...
the psi indicates how much air per square inch can be fitted into the bottle. the higher, the more shots you get out of it.
The size of the bottle can be in relation to the psi as a 1.5 is most likely to be a 4500 - 5000 psi bottle. a 0.8 is likely to be a 1.1

Erm, ok.

A 1.5l 3000psi will hold 1.5 litres of air at 3000 pounds per square inch
A 1.1l 3000psi will hold 1.1 litres of air at 3000 pounds per square inch
A 0.8l 3000psi will hold 0.8 litres of air at 3000 pounds per square inch

Hate to tell you this but 1.5L is more than 0.8L. so you'll get more shots.
