Anyone need a tank??

[woogie_man]

I am looking at maybe getting another tank for my truck for when I go camping and what not. Was looking around at possibly getting another tank or two, and then I came across a 9L tank. Does anyone have anything like this that they use? Would be interesting to hear what your thoughts and opinions are on the tank.

I have same thing 9l and same valve it's a good tank the valve is ok really got to crank on the bleed screw to get it to seal back up and the gauges are in mpa but for the money I can live with it

 

[Airgunmann]

Really overall I'd buy a second if I needed one

 

[Emu]

Not the same.

When going hunting for long period I take with me one of my squba tanks to make refills. But exclusively on those ocassions.

 

[woogie_man]

Honestly would like to find one without the valve on it, so I can replace with a saber tactical valve on it.
Need to figure out the size of the tanks that I already have, don't want to get a duplicate. Really wish they made these sizes easier to understand.


A little looking and here it is. Not to bad honestly, should be able to get quite a few fills from that guy!

I use the 6.8l tank and fill station. Not dot certified but I fill on a yong heng. I think it's a great tank for the money. I feel better using the acecare tank rather then an expired fireman tank. Ive had my acecare for about 5 yrs now without any issues. I'm happy with the choice I made to buy this tank.

The Saber Tactical valve is 7/8" - 14 UNF threading. The tank you are looking at is M18* 1.5. They are not compatible. To use the Saber Tac you would need a tank with the standard scba threading (7/8 -14).

I have a 60 min tank already, trying to figure if this 9l tank is the same size or larger. Would love a larger tank to just leave in my truck

I have the 9 liter acecare tank. It has done its job for 3 yrs or so now.

@woogie_man If Im not mistaken, @bigHUN was discussing larger 9L tanks in an older thread. I think he may own some. Maybe reach out to him and ask some questions if he doesn’t chime in because he was tagged in this post.

Saber tact will sell you an adapter for their gauge, I have the same thread pattern using there 30 dollar adapter

9L is 60 min

 

[woogie_man]

Thank 18.13!! I really need to make a print out of all the different measurements for these tanks.

I have one already and it is my truck tank, but would like something larger to be honest

those tanks have metric threads you cant put a joe broncato fitting on them

My story to people with deep pockets like to over-think with it. You need to decide what you will be using it. I knew that I want to tether for BR and I was planning my steps. My story started like this - and turns out it was a learning curve for myself as well: so sharing to you as a learning curve...
- first I bought a BNIB 9L Acecare from my local classifieds from a guy didn't wanted to invest into a compressor;
- then I got myself a first YH
- then I ran into a government auction sale for a fireman station, and bought 4 scba for peanuts
- I realized the outport threads are not matching, and ordered 2 new valves from aliexpress (sory the link doesn't exist any longer), in order to buy the Huma External Regulator

- ended up with 5 tanks, two in DIN and two in inches (whatever that F is called). Some tanks I use now for BR tethering, and some for occasional fill-ups.

The moral of the story is....make up your mind but don't spend soooo much money these are air tanks only. Expired 5 or 10 years ago? If there is no physical damage these can last long long time - but don't fill it with moisture !!!

 

[woogie_man]

Agreed Hun!

My 9L tank, the 60min tank, I got through an auction. It was a military surplus for a fire suppression system and it was never used. Was put into storage and sat there until they didn't need it anymore. I think I paid $50 for it and then shipping. If I was thinking I would have ordered more as it is a pristine tank and I love the size of it.

Are this good to go for fill up at airsoft stores and such or not DOT approved?

 

[woogie_man]

You would probably still need the DOT cert for any place to fill them for you. But if you have your own compressor you are of course good to go.

 

[TN_Yankee]

Acecare tanks are made in China, and do not have DOT approval, so USA shops will not fill them. I believe they have a CE certification, but that doesn't mean squat here.
