Post Air Compressor

Our Team is going to use a 2" Broe and we are wondering if we have to change a bigger air tank or we could use the one in the kit (from Chlippard Instruments).


Thanks

Well, if I'm reading your question right, and even if I'm not, you can only use the tanks you are provided to store air. Well, you could use another cylinder for storage, but yeah.

Nope its to my understanding that you can only use the one pump that FIRST provided in the kit....and you can convert a Cylinder into storage if you were looking to hold more air, but besides that, you will just have to be careful with the amount of air you have available during the time frame of a match...

Yes, the rules state that you can only use the tanks provided. These are actually smaller then last years. These tanks should be sufficient enough to do what you need with that celenoid. The only thing is that you can't use it repeatedly or use more then that one frequently or else you'll run out of pressure.
