Been ogling the little HK 36/4500 tanks. Anyone have any experience or feedback? I generally use a peanut or a 15/45

Experience with 36ci tanks?

It's unfortunate that Ninja doesn't seem to make the SL2 45ci anymore. I have one of those and it's the perfect lightweight tank without going to the odd peanut shapes or down to the tiny 13-17ci tanks.
I generally don't even consider HK products, but the 36ci is definitely a unique size that other companies aren't offering.

I get that. I am very hot and cold on HK products but I’m willing to get it a shot. Good chance I’ll swap the reg anyways

For what it's worth, the Ninja Lite 45cu.in. bottles aren't peanut-shaped. At least the last one I bought wasn't. Definitely is longer than the stubby 45s or 50s we see from other companies.

I bought the purple one for my Sterling. The Flex reg makes it the same length as a 45/45 (shown) with a normal reg. Plus velocity adjustment is much easier. If you go normal reg, an extender is perfect. The HK rubber tank butts fit great if they haven't been put on a big tank before.1 Photo

For my magfed setup the 36 is the perfect size. I used a 15ci tank for a while but it was too small, especially when I was getting 3500psi fills at the field. Tried a 50ci tank which was too big and bulky. The size is best described as a the girth of a 45/45 but the length of a 50/45.1 Photo

Just to follow up...
I have been using a 36ci for the last year or so and I really like it. I like to smush my mask real close to the marker and this is the perfect tank for that. As long as I can get ~300 round off a fill I'm happy and the smaller size balances well with a smaller hopper.💀 PK x Ragnastock 💀

Bummer, I just bought a peanut 48cu inch to replace my favorite Ninja 45/4500psi.
BUT we should all think about messaging Ninja Air (as they are active again) and request another run of the 45/4500 tanks.

The Ninja air tank Lite 4500 has the following dimensions:
Tank Size: 45 Cubic Inch
Tank Pressure: 4,500 PSI
Tank Length: 10.22 inches (with regulator)
Tank Diameter: 3.57 inches
Weight: 1 lb (without standard regulator).
I liked the smaller tank diameter. The prefect bottle size would be an old school 20ounce co2 tank.
