Thanks for sharing your work,but now my few neurons are trying to understand how it works,it use extra flow at wide poppett lift to increase valve spring closing force?
Ok,i saw a tiny hole on the poppett stem,definitely is a new kind of balanced valve,one o ring only,beautiful!!
Way to go continuing the valve research, Travis.Now, how is that cocking finger? Lol. I hope you have built an automated test firing rig. Repetitive stress injuries on finger joints are no joke. "Trigger finger" is no fun at all.

It’s not a balanced valve I used parts I had in the shop to prototype it and the valve stem is from a balanced valve though ( good eye!)

Just passing this along. Bob published another great article in HardAir Magazine. This one is on balanced valves :-)https://hardairmagazine.com/ham-columns/balanced-valves-for-pcp-airguns-theyre-here-today/
So will this fit in the ss valve and will you be selling a kit to go into the ss valve ?

Nice work it will be interesting to see how it does at higher power levels if you'll have to increase spring pressure on the ball
It will drop directly into a SS valve body. Still a long way from making it for sale yet I need much data.
wonder how it will work in a Disco or Maximus.

The ball and spring have two affects 1. it traps the HP air below the ball plunger and forces the valve closed rapidly 2. it provides a larger vent on the poppet upstroke so the valve opens easier than a cobra valve.
