so i could use this Pure Energy 68/4500 Fiber Tank? apparently all of their 4500 tanks are HP, this wont screw up my g7?

might , might not. Some guns work fine with them, others dont.
Get a crossfire Lp. They are reliable and are consistant.

I personally like the Guerrilla Air on tank regulators. I use an Assault LP regulator and it is shorter than my Crossfire LP regulator by about 1/2", weighs about three ounces less (120 grams vs. 200 grams), and flows very well. Every single piece can be order separately if something gets damaged. Not to say the Crossfire isn't a good regulator. It is very good. I just like the Assault LP more. If weight is a concern try to find a carbon fiber tank.

that depends on the reg on the tank. some can and some cant. but the optimal output into the marker is around 450psi. and up to 850psi. but some angels are touchy at the higher input. i personally have a g7 and a g7fly both with stock miniregs on them and i use high pressure with both of them with out any spiking or high chrono marks. but thats just me.

^^^^^Now my buddies g7 doesnt work worth a §§§§ with a HP tank. We couldnt get it down below 270fps with it spiking all over the place. Your best bet.....stick with L.P. tanks.

If you have a Pure Energy tank, you can rebuild it for low pressure. All you need is a $15 part that you can install yourself.

One of these should do it:
