I picked up a filled 20# co2 bottle with brand new regulator off of a local board for $100. Works great, the only downfall is it is not a "high flow" regulator like the power tank so it will frost up if you try running power tools for an extended period of time.
I have a 10lb powertank, will the regulator work with nitrogen? Co2 sucks in the snow, and the pressure in the tires changes drastically with the elevation changes.
Argon and CO2 use the same reg, just a different tank adapter. Nitrogen uses its own type of reg.
Yes it can be done. A buddy and I were running CO2 tanks long before Power Tank came into existence. It works great, but having a oba compressor makes life a lot easier.Parts needed:20lb tankdual gauge regulatormounting bracketair fittings and air hose.Your local welding supply shop should be able to get you a tank(rental/exchange tank when refilling) for about $20, about $70 for regulator. I am not sure if they sell a vehicle mount or not, then air fittings and hoses.If you want a nice shinny chrome tank and nice mounting bracket/harness, it will set you back about $150, then you will still need a regulator, and hoses.CO2 tanks have to be re-certified every 10yrs(here in CA anyways) so you might want to take that into account if wanting to buy your own tank.
i have a nitrogen tank with my welder regulator. cost me $25i had a old o2 tank and had it exchanged for the nitro tank. only cost me $25 pplus the cost to fill it
