Ok i went to Global Paintball on Friday and go my tank filled. I got home and put it in my room and forgot about it until today Monday. I had the output turned all the way off. I got it out today cuz im going to play Monday Night Speedball 2nite and my tank is empty. Im assuming it vented all my pressure from the tank i know for a fact that it does this. I have woken up at nite hearing my tank venting off all the air like 4 times. What the hell is going on here?! Why is it doing this? As far as i know it is still working but im bringing my "backup" tank along with me just in case. Please help me!

It only vents air when the presure is to high, but with the older ones there are some probs with the venting rubber/metal.
So what kind of air do you have a new or an old version?

As stated it's only supposed to vent from the overpressure relief when it gets to like 850 or so. Why it would randomly start venting? Well it sounds like you've either left the adjustment screw in a little bit and it just built up over time, or you've got a leaking o-ring possibly a main seal. Easy fixes if you've got the AIR tool kit.

no its the new version and its weird cuz ill go get it filled and ill turn the air flow off and then it just starts venting later on until its empty. I really dont know whats up w/ it. But it was filled monday and i still have air in it soooo maybee it fixed itself. who knows. it works fint tho.
