CA reactor 1 Me 0
 

Just when everything is looking good and seems to be running smooth something has to go wrong. I noticed on my Co2 tank that the PSI gauge on the right is down to about 200!!! It started at about 900 psi. It went from 900-200 in about a week and a half. Do you think my regulator is leaking because the bottle sat full in my basement for about 3 weeks before i got to it and i have reason to suspect if there was something wrong with the bottle than it would have been empty. any suggestions and does anyone have a regulator i can buy/have that works?

very well could be. how big is the bottle?

10lb i found a leak using the old soapy water method, it was a pretty nice size leak i re-teflonded the seal and lets cross my fingers an pray because needless to say if this doesn't work i'm done with this big tank business i think a 40 gallon would be perfect!

Seems that leak i found didn't change anything i lost another 100psi over-night which is ridiculous especially because its supposed to go 6 months in between refils not 3 weeks. Does anyone have a regulator i can swap mine out with to see if it indeed is the regulator.

what? seriously???
the Ca reactor has got to have about 4 points by now...

Yah, its got about 15 as far as im concerned. I think its my regulator though so i'm going to buy a new one
