Powertanks?? - A ripoff??

[Sexy Evil ST]

Always thought the Powertanks was a cool idea. <br>Definitely less costly than some of the other airing up your tires options. At least for the average joe smoe that likes to have air conditioning.<br><br>So, from what I've seen today, is that the basic Powertank cost $150+.<br><br>But, wait, why don't I just buy a 20lb CO2 beer keg tank off E-bay for $90???<br><!--EZCODE AUTOLINK START--><a href="http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=1267&item=3811912611&rd=1">cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI...12611&rd=1</a><!--EZCODE AUTOLINK END--><br><br>Looks like the same thing, just used for a different purpose and comes at a different price. <br><br>So, if I decide to keep my A/C, a 20lb CO2 from the drunken beer industry is the way to go. <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :smokin --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/smokin.gif ALT=":smokin"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <p></p><i>Edited by: <A HREF=http://p223.ezboard.com/bdemon4x4.showUserPublicProfile?gid=aquaman@demon4x4>Aquaman</A> at: 5/3/04 12:12 pm<br></i>

Sounds good.<br>What exactly are the benifits of CO2 vs. air? Air just seems to be a bit cheaper... <p></p><i></i>

It can be used with Beer Keg setups???<br><br>I think the CO2 is more compressed than air. Lasts longer. <p></p><i></i>

Jon this is probably like most everything else in wheeling. The power tank setup is designed and speced to all work together and be warrantied, etc. The other setups can be made to work equally as well I'm sure, but it will just take more research and experimentation. <p></p><i></i>
