a biger psi bottle holds more air, so you get more shots per fill.
preset means that it has fixed output pressure either High presure (HP=850psi) or low pressure (LP=450psi)
if you can afford it, go for a 1.1l fibrewrapped bottle in 4500/5000 psi size.
Just paintball are currently doing these with reg for £99.95 you just need to know what input pressure your marker needs

the just paintball deal has finished now on the air bottles, its still on the website but its defo finished
well i have spyder fenix so if anyone could enlighten me on the input on that and most sites near me only fill to 3000psi does that matter
No it doesn't matter.
You can fill a 4500psi bottle with 3000psi but you can't get 4500psi into a 3000psi bottle as it could blow up.
if you buy a 4500psi bottle then you are safe everywhere.
i played a tourney at the weekend that only had a 4500 psi supply and as a result a couple of guys that turned up couldn't get there 3000 bottles filled.
90% of tourney players use 1.1L(0.68Cu) 4500psi bottles, so buy one of these and you'll be alright.
I don't know for sure but you must be able to run the spyders on CO2, which has a pressure of 800-900psi.
If that is right then you need a high pressure (HP) preset.
Hope that helps

yeah cheers so if i go hihger psi im cool anywhere, sort of and i used air on my spyder sunday was awesome dunno what the bottles preset at as it was a rental bottle i think il pm andydane he will know lol cheers guys
awww bless scars you felt it that important to put it twice im touched haha think i gonna get a 4500psi fibre wrapped
The site air systems are 850psi presets mate.
But they're only 3000psi steel bottles. You really want a 4500psi fibre wrapped bottle if you plan to play anything other than rec ball.
