    There are a lot of companies out there that sell co2 tank kits. Biggest difference is with the powertank brand and their monster valve and hose. It flows a bunch of air really fast. Most of the other guys do what the homebrew guys do. Basically a balloon valve with some parts online. Google it and price out some parts. I was going to do this some time back and could build one for about $100 with a tank off of craigslist.

    thats a great price,, the regulator is a HyperFlo, very good at 150PSI I used one for about 4 years, zero issues.. I had a 20# tank with everything I had about $100 in it, I got the tank free, and bought the mount, hose, regulator (hyper-flo) air chuck. so for 5# with all new stuff, everything you need IMO that isnt bad.
    Im not sure how many fills your going to get from 5#, just depends on how low you air down to, and how high you fill back up to.

    Good price, but I personally feel like a 5lb tank is a little on the small side. If it was me I'd try to piece together a 10lb unit, you could probably do it for a very similar price.

    10lb is the way to go.

    I can, because I don&#039;t know that I can&#039;t.

    that is a good price, but i didnt realize its just a 5lb... that wouldnt do you much good, other than 1 time resetting a bead or airing up a flat tire... i dont think it would be able to air up 4 full size tires, 10-20 is perfect

    what do you guys think is a decent size for trying to run air tools off of? Also, do you have to have any special air tools, or would any old impacts do? I'm not talking about major repairs or work here, no tear downs, just maybe changing a tire or something.....

    No special air tools, as for size, I don't know. I have a 20 lb tank that I've been plenty happy with though. I use it for brewing, airing up tires, etc and it usually lasts a long time.

    If you have the space (not that it's significantly more), I'd go with a 20 lb. tank.
