Which one...??

I take it, planet are out of stock.

 

[Skullpop]

Exactly.

Is there one on that page that is the right one?
where else can i buy this gizmo?

 

[Tom Allen]

I don't think anyone else makes them. I made one for my own use to get a good 4500 fill, but there's not much demand as most people fill from a dive tank.

I sell them, did i not say that earlier.

So no paintballer can walk into a standard dive shop and fill up just like that?

So everyone needs that converter, but no-one sells it?

wake up dude!!!

to fill up ure air tank - either do it at a paintball site, fill ti up at a tourney or get ureself a dive tank and fill rig

simple as!

If you compare this adaptor rig to a standard fill rig sold by planet at £49.95, the £25 doesn't seen too expensive.
The trouble with dive shops is, they don't need this adaptor for their primary source of business "diving". They're not concerned with paintball, it's us who are encroaching on their world. If this adaptor was part of their range, i guarantee it would be far more expensive to buy than £25.
The other option, is to buy a dive bottle and a fill rig, then get it filled at the dive shop, which works out at...

dive bottle, second hand = £100
fill rig = £49.95
Fill at dive shop = £3

That's over £150

 

[Skullpop]

I sit corrected!

Do you make these yourself, do you say?

 

[Tom Allen]

Yes, i do make them, but personally i would go down the dive tank and fill rig road, but there's the initial outlay to consider. Where do you intend to play, as most sites have air, and every tournament has air provided.
