Charlie... well spotted. As the above quote from my first post clearly states:-

Got this air bottle and until i can get an air system i'm gonna use it with Co2... How much can i put in?

co2 /1.1

a 20oz bottle has a 0.8l capacity so a 1.1 bottle will hold 0.3l more gas which works out as 27.5 oz plus weight of empty bottle
hope this helps my own luxfer bottle full weighs 4lb 2oz

Cheers mole that helps a lot.

all tanks legally have to be able to hold 4 times their operating pressure

im in the process of buying a micromag of someone, not the RT version, and it comes with a nitro duck "tuff Skin"air tank, but my local site dont do air or nitrogen refills, just Co2.

the micromag has an expansion chamber on it. I just wanna know if its safe to use Co2 on a micromag (i now you cant on the new RT's with retro valve) and if you can run Co2 in the above air tank?

Not too sure about the airsystem, but I know that you can use CO2 on the micro mag. It is just the Rt's and retro valves that have to run on air.
