why should i avoid stako bottles??

Well, £170 ain't cheap by my standards, especially for a throw away item.
Normal tanks with presets are around the same price or cheaper so...

But yes, nice idea with the light weight etc, shame about the fact that they aren't compatible with impatient people.

If anyone want's a Stako, I have one for sale. It's yum and hasn't so much as farted, let alone detonated.

£170.00 Where did you get that price from they are £120.00 with a reg from us!

When they were popular, I got mine for £135 with a reg and they were £170 at Planet, when they were popular.

Naturally, prices will fall as demand falls.

Still, that's a cheap price dude.

Ack what a load of heresay and codswallop from most people here.

All HP air systems are dangerous, so go get some CO2 and leave the air systems to people who are responsible and do their research.
Id guess 99.999999999 stakos are 100% fine.
And I'd stake a decent wager the incidents with them werent a fault of the bottle itself.

Just dont flash fill them - same as ANY HP AIR BOTTLE TBH and use a high quality reg, at a high quality, well maintained fill rig to minimise any risk.

Even with the above standards in place, accidents will still happen with any air system on any fill rig, if noobs put oil near their air systems.

I do believe that in recent years there have been more serious injuries from CO2 in the USA than with Compressed Air

If anyone wants a stako i've got one for sale so you can see for yourself how light they are.

Infact, the award for most dangerous air system goes to the stako with a myth reg.

Woops

Why should you avoid Stako's???

I have no idea

Ps. To my knolledge from what happened with me and looking into loads of stuff to do with Stako and possible causes (as I still havent been told anything), the USA would not grant a DOT licence to Stako so they are illegal there, but they may of changed it now.
