Can an Invert Mini run off of co2?
hi, you "can", but i would not recommend it, if you did you would want to be sure it is VERY warm out, the reason they dont want you too, is be cause co2 is a liqued, about 250 below 0 degrees, it has to change from a liqued to a gas inside the gun, but in a electropnumatic gun like the mini, the propellant has to travell through the selenoid, before it reaches the chamber, so with co2, it can still be in partial liqued form, and cause freezing tempetures to ruin the electrronics in your gun, what i did, because i live in maine, is i bought a scuba tank for my nitro tank, and i fill it off that myself, i just go to the nearest dive, or sporting goods shop, and they fill it for 4$, i get about 25 fills off that, saves alot of money over co2, so you CAn use it, but it WILL damage your gun over time........have fun playing anyway though, i hope mor people get into it..... -Eric

What kind of gas does the invert mini paintball gun run on, Co2 or nitrogen?
I've found your answer from a couple sources, one from ansgear.com and one from youtube. Angsgear.com lists that: " * Weighing in under 2 lbs (including barrel, ASA, 9volt battery and regulator) the Invert Mini™ might be THE Lightest & Tightest electronic marker available * NEW patented proprietary P.C.P. (Pressure Controlled Poppet™) operating system * NEW patented proprietary MINI Regulator/ASA * NEW patented proprietary Slipstream™ solenoid * Break Beam Anti-Chop Eyes Standard * Multi-mode (NPPL Semi, PSP ramping, NXL, & Millennium ramping) firing capability with easy tournament lockout * Clamping feed-neck with Ion (Smart Parts)/ICD threads * "Cocker" threaded 12" barrel * No hoses to crimp or break! * Initial production colors will be polished finish Black, Red or Blue, Dust Olive, Dust Silver and Orange * One year limited warranty * Works on hp or lp * Spring Returned bolt * Magnet returned trigger. * Only 2 sets of Wires (quick disconnect wires connecting battery to the board, and the solenoid to the board). * One Screw Quick Strip - Bolt guide, bolt and bolt return spring then simply slide out the back of the gun. * Uses a Hall effect sensor * Volume chamber in Grip Frame * Two stage bolt system to be gentler on paint * Control Button Located Back of Front Grip * Stock Barrel is .691 * Stock Trigger can adjust pull length, stop points, and sensitivity **************************************... * IT WON'T LIKE CO2 AT ALL **************************************... * It's been in development 4-5 years * Works at 160-200psi" On youtube, somebody asked your same question, the question and answer go as follows: "-midniteasassin (3 days ago) what tanks do the invert mini use compressed air, co2, or nitrogen p8ntbalin (3 days ago) HPA and nitrogen are the same. It uses LP HPA/nitro. 400psi reg output. Go to compulsive paintball and find a tank that has LP somewhere in the title. " So, looks like it cannot be run on CO2, HPA/Nitrogen only.
How many shots does an invert mini get off of a 48/3000?
Typically around 500, depending on various factors like paint to bore matching and at what fps you chrono it. With some basic tuning and a good lube, you can easily up this to about 700, and I have heard of some getting up to 900 shots with that size tank, though I can't confirm that. Here's a pretty good series of guides how to tune and upgrade it: http://www.pbnation.com/showthread.php?t... http://forum.moatipaintball.com/index.ph... http://www.p8ntballer-forums.com/vb/show... The Mini is pretty darn efficient, but with a few tweaks, it can be downright stingy with air. I can typically play a whole (non-tourney) day with my 68/4500 and not need a fill, and I will easily blow through a case and then some without worrying. Congrats on getting a superb marker- the Mini is one of the best values in paintball, and a great performing marker all-around. Even though I own many markers, including 2 Bob Longs and an Angel, I use the Mini most often for recreational woods and speedball because it is so easy to deal with and a lot of fun to use.
Can you use normal co2 in an invert mini paintball gun?
You should only use HPA. CO2 is "bad" for paintball guns and you wouldn't want to ruin a gun like that. It is possible with an anti-siphon tank but just use HPA. Not many people would use CO2 on a Mini. These types of markers are electronic and CO2 doesn't work well with electronic. You could also ruin the valves in it.
Can i use co2 with an invert mini paintball gun?
No, co2 will not work in a mini unless you have an anti-siphon co2 tank or anti-siphon tubes installed in your gun. If you're investing in a mini, you might as well invest in a compressed air tank. Crossfire and Ninja are 2 reliable brands with good warranty's plus they are cheaper to refill than co2 tanks. A 68ci/4500psi tank will cost about 4 dollars to fill and will give you around 700-800 shots on one fill. In the long run it is better to use compressed air for many many reasons, it will never dirty the inside of your mini which co2 is almost guaranteed to do.
Is co2 compatible with the invert mini paintball gun?
Yeah, I agree with the Russian Spaceman above- the Mini is a real nice marker that a few of my friends have, and they all use HPA/CA/N2/Nitro (all the same thing, by the way.) none of them would dream of running Co2, nor should you. I wouldn't risk a $300-400 marker on a $30 tank that may or may not feed some liquid into my internals, even with an anti-siphon tube and expansion chamber. Just not worth the risk. Medium size metal HPA tanks are pretty cheap now ($45-90) and HPA fills are usually the same price as Co2, often with free refills, so it's cost-effective. I'd go with one of those tanks or a more expensive carbon-fiber model before I let Co2 near a Mini.

How many balls per seconds can an Invert Mini Paintball Marker go?
First, I was wondering how many BPS an invert Mini goes stock. In addition, I was wondering how good it is (ie. is it finicky?) and how to customize it so that it can shoot out more balls per second and so it can be even better than it is stock. Thanks, Rob
