CO2 Supply

Hey guys,

Alright this is probably aimed at countries who can't purchase "CO2" tanks from a local paintball store of whatever...

Anyway I was in K-mart (australia) looking for some bottle caps for my next BBMG (plugging holes). Then I came across the party section found my bottle caps what did I find? 6oz (330g'ish) co2 tank.

For those who are in Aussie it costs about $AU41. And the price of recharging it only costs like $AU5'ish. Although you'll need a regulator... I think you can a buy the soda making machine for like 50bucks which comes with the co2 tank. I'm not sure if you can take it apart and steal the regulator but I'm assuming that a soda making machine wouldn't run on unreggulated co2 or else BOOM!

I can't find a picture of it on google but it had the label AlCO3...

Anyone interested?

We in the Uk use the empty Co2 bottles as high pressure air vessels.
Have been doing so for years.

Their brand name is SodaStream.
