Yeah, apparently the "bag" inside mis-shapes if there's nothing to hold it in shape (or some sh!t like that, LOL)
bottle
- Thread starter danz
- Start date
exactly, so you then get an air bubble between the membrane and the outer fibre shell, as the "bag" fills it pushs the air out the only way it can, through the fibre skin
not really a major issue imho
Yeah, the 'bag' deflates, so air can get inbetween the 'bag' and the bottle. Then people would fill it up to fast and all the air in this space would cause bubbles in the bottle.
Apparently, it should takes 12 minutes to fill up a stako from 0-4500psi because of the material it is made from, the compressed air heats up but the heat can't escape from a stako like it can in other bottles. (or something like that anyway... :/ )

12mins, really!?
gonna have to look into that, thats a collissal amount of time, was expecting around 3mins, although most players will flash fill them any way

yep you want one Ive got one going...Daaam all this is a lot of hassle.... anyone wanna sell me a 3k STEEL bottle?
pm me...
Yup, just re-read the thread I read where my info cam from, although it didn't mention 12 minutes, so I don't know where that came from
.If possible, carbon fibre bottles (stakos) should be filled from a seperate fill rig that has a flow rate no more than 120 litres per minute, but if this isn't available, 1000psi, wait a minute, 1000psi ect.
