No as its DOT and illegal to use in the UK. But if you want to take the risk of it blowing up, and the insurance being in valid.......

thats not true, its illegal for commercial fillins, ie Hpac filling you bottle or sumthing, as far as i know, if you have your own dive tank u can fill it

dont get a dot bottle dude. campaign probably wont want to fill it as like someone said it invalidates the insurance (probably) and campaign is commercial.
stay with your current bottle, then when you afford it get an hse/pi bottle, then you can play tournies n' shizzle.
oh, bin thinkin bout your lcd, maybe the breech o'ring is missing??just a thought.

Cheers mate,
I'm going along to Ambush at the end of the month and a Wdp Tech is going to have a look and maybe service it for me.
Thought i'd upgrade my bolt, from speaking to some of the guys there the other week. and am awaiting a soft nose bolt.
i was just wondering about the bottle as i was getting a bit pi$$ed off running out of air half way through a game. don't think i'll bother if campaign want let me. i'll just keep on saving!!!
Is it still at Dorking on the 15th?

IT'S ILLEGAL TO FILL IT IN THE UK............... doesn't matter if you use H-pac, dive tank or blow into it really hard. If it's in the UK then it's not been UK tested, therefore illegal to use it (it can't have been tested as it's not a UK standard......ask H-pac, but DO NOT use it)
Completely illegal and anyone trying to sell it to you is a dick. Unless it's from the US and even they should know better.
Health and Safety law, nothing to do with invalidating insurance.
So, before answering a question as serious as this, make sure you have the correct answer........... a newbie could take bad advice as gospel from someone with a high post count and bad information.
From the UKPSF site:
I have a DOT bottle can I use H-pac?
The simple answer is NO
H-pac will only fill HSE approved air cylinder that are in test. No other cylinders will be filled. This is the law in the UK.
So there you go, you can't fill a dot bottle in the UK.........same law for us as H-pac.

Bump is used to push a thread up the forums if it gets lost in the nether pages.
H-PAC are the testing authority for HPA tanks, they also fill air at most tournies.
