HP on BKO

[PaintballerSteve]

Can you use an HP tank on a BKO?

Thanks.

[Revenant303]

yes

80 % use a hp tank

[sloppyjohn]

lp is really meant for a 04 bko hp pops your solenoids

[bko boi]

dude, hp cant pop noids, if ur hpr and lpr are set correctly it is rare to have that high of pressure into ur gun, soo HP works great on ne marker, it is just more convient say if u have another gun that HAS to run on HP so just get a high pressure tank

you sir are an idiot

Thats waht the regs are for moron. I use HPA and so do about 80-85% use. You wont have any problems at all

[goober07]

heck i use co2. hp will be fine

[veedoubleugee]

sloppy, read the 69ci low pressure thread you posted before....we went over this already. did you learn anything?

[sloppyjohn]

oops lol...but in that thread somebody said that hp can pop your noids and i thought it was possible ...but then i just remeberd about the regulator

[veedoubleugee]

yeah, dont take everyones word for the truth. sometimes people dont really know what they are saying. when you see someting that sounds questionable, give it a couple of days and usually someone will respond with a counter.

Will the stock reg be ok if I use an HP tank?

[Chronicles]

yea

[bko boi]

just think of it like this, hpr stands for HIGH pressure regulator, its there to reduce the output pressure of ur tank into a usable pressure, and than ur lpr which is LOW pressure regulator, takes that high pressure down even more, so as long as u got a reg on there it will be fine

[sloppyjohn]

IF U HAVE A LP TANK U WOULD WANT TO BUY AN LP REGULATOR?

[chasangelandbko]

an LPR is always a good idea not just because you need one but it helps in air efficiency and in return you do lower your operating pressure. meaning you can lower your pressure and still shoot at 300 feet per second just using less air, therefore getting more shots in a fill.

[veedoubleugee]

here is how it works
tank comes in hp (output 850psi) or lp (output 450psi)
this tank pressure is brought down by a adjustable hp regulator (100psi-800psi). these adjustable hp regulators can accept tank pressures as high as 1200psi and bring them as low as you want. the bko would be in the 200psi range. next would be your LP regulator (0psi-200psi) that controls air going into your solenoid. the solenoid is like an air switch for your ram. it turns air flow on or cuts air flow off. this causes your ram to fire forward.

[goober07]

^^^ that means you have 2 regs, the hpr and lpr
(hpr is the thing you hold on to, lpr is under the barrel)

[veedoubleugee]

exactly....not counting the nitro tank regulator of course.

[pbplayer540]

and if you were to use lp (to be on the safe side) it would be enough to power the gun, and no shoot down even at high rates of fire? i'm looking at my 1st tank probably a centerflag, but i'm stuck between hp abd lp...

[pb2xtrms]

theres no non safe side. You can use HP on your bko, end of story. Thers no danger of blowing yournoid unless you have your reg set way to high, even then, the noid will purge the air. So, YOU CAN SAFELY USE HP IN YOUR BKO.

[pbplayer540]

thank you

Wait a minute..so..if you use a HP tank..your whole gun won't explode? I think you guys are lying with this whole HP being good thing..

your kidding right....

oh by the way, the only bko you cant use a hp tank on is the 2002 bko with stock hp regulator. if you change the reg then their is no problem.

[The_Hawk]

Of course I'm kidding, silly goose. Just like I was kidding when I said that your gun would explode if you dry-fired it with the bolt upside-down...Then got called an idiot by a kid who played with his bolt upside down...Now tell mw who the real idiot is..

[veedoubleugee]

lol....ok just making sure. you have to throw in some funny faces or rolly eyes...lol
