What is 1100 for ..and is this where pcp starts in output . What's the norm. What's the best..? Etc
There is a bit of a "standard" for the output of HPA regulators. These were first used on paintball marker guns, and then people adapted them for lead pellet and bullet guns. Since CO2 has a nominal pressure of around 850 psi at 68-72F (room temp) one of the common regulator outputs is 850 psi, although sometimes you get 800 psi, 900 not so common, and 1100 psi next common... what CO2 would be on a hot day. Many PAL rated HPA airguns run at 1100 psi. Other regulator settings seem to be 1600, 1800, 2200 psi, etc. And some regulators are adjustable by changing the belleville washer stack. See my recent post about turning down my HPA regulator from 1100 to 850 psi. HIH.
