So i got my CO2 tanks back today from getting inspected and filled all I need now is some CO2 regulators. Does anyone know a good place to get regulators that aren't too expensive

If you don't plan on running air tools, then think about a low-buck Helium regulator. They're $30 at Botco, and regulate down the 100 psi from the tank. There's no need for pressure gauges. Just fill it up when it starts getting light. I have used the hell out of mine, and it does just fine for airing up tires.

eventually i would like a nice regulator with a guage and adjustable flow, but i can't justify spending 70 bucks on a regulator when i have only spend 70 on the entire system

did you get those intown or off of the internet?

well they didn't have what i was looking for exactly but instead I picked up a used 75psi co2 regulator for $15. It turned that the regulator was actually a 130psi regulator. Not to bad of a deal, I now have a C02 system and it has only cost me $50 a tank not to bad I don't think

Thats cool, so why'd you decide CO2 over OBA?

i chose co2 over oba because the tanks were free. Eventually I will either plump the CO2 tanks into the vehicle like oba and you won't know the difference and If i switch to OBA it will easier
