I'm new to the game an just bought my first marker and looking for an air source but did not know the difference between the 48ci and a 0.8l bottle and I wondered if any one could help me
Thank you in advance

diffrence between a 48ci bottle and a 0.8l bottle of air

No difference...
48ci is 0.8l
A 48 cubic inch tank (commonly referred to as a steely) will hold 0.8 litres of compressed air at 3000psi.
Or you may be looking at a fibre wrapped tank, an aluminium core wrapped in fibre glass and usually covered in protective plastic. These, known as carbon fibre tanks are a lot lighter than steel bottles and can also hold 1.5 times the air... e.g a 48ci fibre tank will hold 0.8 l of air up to 4500 psi.

Okay thank you that's cleared that up for me. I was looking on two different sites an they had the different ways of putting it that's what threw me off.
