i have noticed my "up brand" co2 regulator keeps speeding up over tiome, by that i mean the amount being released increases, any suggestions

Get a better quality regulator

seriously? do these have this problem alot?

I have read somewhere that the solenoid and needle valve isn't that good quality. I can't quite remember where I saw it though, might have been here or an overseas forum. Maybe get a Tunze or something, they're good quality and pretty cheap too. I have one sitting in the closet that I'm waiting to use and it cost me $180.00 plus $8 shipping which was a really good buy.

yeah , i thnk ill just set it up to a co2 controller that way id doesnt matter

does your tunze have a solnoid?

You can control the flow OK with a needle valve and bubble counter.

No the Tunze doesn't have a solenoid, so I'll need to buy one. I wouldn't ever use pressurized CO2 without a solenoid because it wastes a lot if you leave it on during the night.

mine has bubble counter and needle value which is what is speeding up i think, might just be a good idea to get a co2 controller then it wount matter if it speeds up

Why don't you just replace the needle valve, they are cheap off ebay or go to a hydraulics company
