What Co2 setup?

[chris-w-89]

Hi Everyone,

I am looking for opinions here
I have the 80L TMC Signature kit witch I plan to use the JBL Pro Scape range in but I am stuck with what JBL Co2 kit to use I was thinking on useing the U201 nano kit as its small simple neat and tidy and doesn't take up much space or should I just bite the bullet and get the M602 kit with the solenoid witch will obviously last me a good while?

Cheers
Chris.

I'd say neither, get a "DIY" system to use with a fire extinguisher: http://www.ukaps.org/forum/threads/fire-extinguisher-co2.266/

You should be able to get a 2KG fire extinguisher for £25 max (plenty of tales of people getting them for £10), regulator (with solenoid) from one of the sponsors for £40-80 depending on your standards (good 2nd hand deals can be found if you're patient), and then the CO2 line, diffuser, bubble counter, non-return valve and drop checker (also available from sponsors) are going to cost you ~40 max. Infact CO2art and CO2supermarket have a system builder, as well as bundles (which presumably save you money)

other sponsors will do CO2 stuff to fit FEs as well. Refills will cost you £3-£10

Hey Chris,

As an investment the m602 is the better purchase mine is 10 years old now and still going. I think you will find buying the refills for the U201 to be annoying i know would and costly.

You should consider Rahms suggestion as i think i will be the cheaper option and you can then custom design your system like getting an inline diffuser excreta.

Jonny

m602 = rip off. get co2art dual stage reg with smc valve fitted and save yourself £100 and have a much better and cheaper to run system

even if you buy a brand new fire extinguisher every time its still 1/4 the price for refills, lol

I see were you are coming from, I only had a quick glimpse of stuff you mentioned from CO2art so if i was to get a kit from them would there solenoids fit extinguishers?
