I have Been looking at getting my own scuba tank, and wondering how many fills I would get out my tank, its 1.1l 4500psi, they come in a few sizes 10-15 litres, and I rather know off people who fill this way, rather than someone guessing facts and figures. I would be paintballing for 2/3days and would say I fire about 5000 paintballs in a weekend, Any help would be appreciated,

Also i'm new to the forums today, so hello to everyone.

I fill off a scuba tank. It's a 12l 300bar tank. I use a 48/45 tank and I would say I get about 9-10 decent fills up to 3000psi.

It's also worth noting that you will never get a proper 300 bar fill from the dive centres due to heat expansion.

I would say filling your 68/45 off of your bottle should see you ok for 5000 paintballs.

I'm sure Tom Allen will chime in as he knows his stuff about hpa.
