CO2 bottles

[Raffles]

Do CO2 bottles ever need testing?

 

[Tom Allen]

Aye.

 

[Raffles]

OK - can you shed any more light on it please?

Eg. How often and how do you tell when?

Tom, do the 3.5oz ones need testing?

Thought i read some where that these didn't.

 

[Tom Allen]

3.5 oz don't have to be tested.

 

[Tom Allen]

Fairly sure it's along the lines of 3 or 5 year tests like the fibre wrap, but not completely sure.

 

[Raffles]

Hoki koki.

Well I know it is a lot older than 5 years so I'll get it tested anyway. I'm giving it to a noob, along with a hopper and marker etc. - so it has to be right.

Now - where to get it tested....

 

[Tom Allen]

it may be cheaper to get a new one.

 

[Raffles]

Fair point. I'll have a nosy about and bin this one. Ta

I haven't used my CO2 bottle in over a year or two, is it still safe to fill?
