I have looked all over the forum and couldnt find this. I have a handheld confetti launcher I got from here

It works great and could be used for other applications. I was wondering if anyone knew where to get the part that the little CO2 cartridges screw into. I can not find this part anyone.

I was about to mention those bike tyre inflaters two hours ago but got distracted :P

But yeah, those are pretty much as small as they get, the difference from yours being the inlet/outlet is at 90*.

...the other thing is they use a "regulated" valve instead of the ball valve on the confetti launchers.

I say "regulated" because I suspect all they do is constrict the airflow with a screw so it can't overpressurise very fast.

The way this one works is you get threaded cartridges, screw them in. It punctures it while you screw it in. Then there is that quarter turn valve that releases the air from the cartridge to the tube.
