Booster Carl, booster. I'm not a salesman but it would free your hands. It makes a remarkable difference with an airhog like powerful .45.
I use 2 tanks, one 300 bar for shooting pressure and one 200 bar for boosting power with pressure regulator down to 10 bars. Then I have another regulator to 7 bars or so, that I adjust as needed. It must be reliably ensured that boosting pressure can't rise too high because booster will multiply it by 50, that is why two regs in series and it also works more steady. With this combination it is possible to shoot few hours with Ranger .45 which is an airhog if any. Mine is bought from US, sorry, I don't know if those are available now. I automatisized it myself with pneumatic parts only, so no electricity needed.
The Haskel dude didnt understand that the drive would come from one bottle and would be boosted to the gun directly I think. I too have a booster, but its a monster compared to Timo's compact booster. It uses twise the air to drive but delivers twise tye volume. I use one or two 200bar 10L bottles to drive the booster and one 12L 300bar supply this setup lasts for half a day when shooting constantly, doing bullet test or what not. Booster is handmade by me.

Nice shootingI believe the zoom problem is most digital cameras use digital zoom, not optical zoom. All digital zoom does is zoom in on the smaller image, so it gets pixelated. If you look for another camera, try to get one with optical zoom as it will look nicer when zoomed in.
No point filling the other bottle, more convinient just to hook up one for drive when its down to your pressure regulator setpoint and use the booster to fill the gun directly. It only takes couple of valves to automate the booster. That way you can shoot as low as 60-90bar on the supply and drive bottle to 8bar. You boost to regulator and use that to shoot.Boosting from one bottle to the other wastes air because in the end you have one bottle that has the amount of air that is your reg setpoint and the other around 60-90bar. Below that the booster efficiency goes down too much. Marko
I think they haven't understand you question at all. It is all about filling the gun, not other tank. I have the same as Marko, 10 liter 200 bar bottle and 12 liter 300 bar bottle. 200 bar bottle goes empty first when pressure in 300 bar bottle drops, more work is needed to fil guns reservoir. It could be bigger, say 18 liters. Of course it would be better to use 300 bars for working pressure too, the reason I am using 200 bars is that I can find a standard commercial regulator from 200 to 10 bars.Booster works like this: first you have full bottles. Lets say you need 250 bars for shotting, it comes from 300 bar bottle and booster does nothing. When pressure drops under 250 booster starts working and the more it drops the more it is working and of course consumes the more air from working pressure bottle. When you go low in shooting pressure bottle you will pretty soon consume your working pressure bottle but still anyway you can have whole day of shooting with an airhog in best case. It really makes a remarkable difference. VERY remarkable. I can't do anything else but recommend.God I hate this laptop keyboard.. And mousepad but I have separate mouse, otherwise it is very good.I think I payed for my booster something like $750. And couple hundreds more for pneumatics to automatize it. And yes, something more for regulators, hoses, pressure gauges etc but not even close the sums you mentioned. I hope you can find more reasonable price.
Guy at a dive shop when I mentioned I may be interested in one showed my one he had rebuilt all O rings for OXYGEN/AIR and cleaned for OXY and sealed and in store for 10 yrs as didn't know how to hook up or use it so will SELL IT.
Carl who is making your new valve?

Carl, you must be the lucky one, I'm just happy you grabbed it.
Doug should reconsider making airguns for living, he really knows his stuff what I have followed ag communitys over the years. Marko
