Regulators! which one

[Original]

Guys i need help choosing a regulator with solenoid and needle valve.

I'm going to list some could I please get some input

Theres a HSL brand one here:

A UP brand one here

Or TMC reg here:

Please advise on these or others, I would appreciate help before I purchase one to make sure i get the best quality one. Or should I buy a two stage reg like here and purchase a solenoid to go with it and needle valve? its extreme costs and I don't know if I should spend all that much.

Multi stage reg:

Please advise me on whats good, whats not and what you have.

Setup is to be used on a 2kg FE

I personally use both this reg and solenoid and are the best bit of equipment I've ever had. I've had a few regulators with combined solanoids etc and these are far superior.

Hmm. If i get that duel-stage reg pictured last I'm thinking I could attach the Lunapet solenoid to it and buy a needle valve.. that would be interesting..

Would it not work out cheaper to buy both reg and solenoid from lunapet

Get the dual stage, much safer then a single stage when injecting a lot of CO2 (no end of tank dump)

If you have the money buy the dual stage and seperate solenoid and seperate needle valve, this is the concensus over at barr report and as i have found TMC are worse than useless.
