So yes it is 4500psi

Thats bizzare then I got sold a tank thats got 310 BAR printed on it but its got a 3000 PSI reg on it???!!?

Confused

 

[Marcus Geezer]

I wouldn't use that if I was you, unless of of course you got less than 3000psi in the tank??

 

[true_death]

Anyone see an obvious mistake or solution, would it be easier if I took a picture etc

 

[Ahdinko]

There is no mistake by the sounds of it.
Its a 3000 PSI reg on a 4500 PSI bottle, meaning its fine to fill up to 3000PSI but no further.
The solution? If you want to use your bottle to its full 4500PSI capacity, then buy a reg that will handle a pressure of 4500PSI.

Ok fair enough looks like I have gotta buy a 4500 reg then I just wanted to make sure so that I don't blow myself up

Cheers
