Hamsnacks H I know this question has been asked a thousand times but the threads are very confusing and conflicting, so many different answers lol and I know there is no perfect or best regulator but hoping for some help. I have decided to stay away from Milwaukee due to the reviews, I think I want to stay away from Aquatek as well. I was using a Chinese brand for $40 but just failed today, I have a budget of about $200 Canadian. The thing is, we don't really have a good selection to pick from! Big Als sells a Ista Product, seems cheap though. Amazon has an American Marine Pinpoint CO2 Regulator With Solenoid, Bubble Counter and Precision Needle Valve and a S.T. International STR-CO2-PRO Regulator. I don't want to do a DIY as of right now, but wondering if anyone else had some suggestions! Or a different brand they recommend. Thank you! #1 · Jul 12, 2018 I know this question has been asked a thousand times but the threads are very confusing and conflicting, so many different answers lol and I know there is no perfect or best regulator but hoping for some help.

A few good options here. I hear really good things about CO2 Art products. I'll try and add the link here (scroll to the bottom for CO2 stuff), but there's a new aquarium business in Vancouver, RAD Aquatic Design, that's selling the UNS Dual Gauge CO2 Regulator With Built in Solenoid for $199.95, but I think they are backordered for a month. #3 · Jul 12, 2018 Following. I'll likely be in the market for one in the near future. #4 · Jul 12, 2018 If either @Hamsnacks or @Quagulator were interested, I'm certain I could put together some DIY regs for less than $200... #5 · Jul 13, 2018 That would be awesome if you could, I think a lot of Canadian users would benefit. Issue I found is the Guides are usually in the US or UK. So if you try to follow them, with the currency conversion you'll end up spending a lot more and at that point is it really worth it? What do you think the price would be for your DIY? But looking at the website you mentioned I'm really interested in the Co2 Art Pro Regulator, it looks really good and a decent price, it's between that and the Aqua-Labs Dual Stage Regulator. Hopefully I can find some comparisons online. Thanks Show more replies 0 Reply Insert Quotes Post Reply
