Does any one know if the other CO2 paintball to sodastream adapters are as well made and work as well as these?
1833642
No. I bought this one and love it. No reason to try any others. I've had no problems with the SodaMod.
1833643
Yes, they are very well made and we've had no issues with ours. There is some adjusting we have to do for each tank change, but it is still worth it and would buy it again!

The threading is specific to soda stream. The adapters are specifically made for paintball to sodastream. I have one and already paid off the price by my savings.

It appears well-made but we have lots of trouble adjusting it... have lost 2 canisters of CO 2 trying to get it right. Any advice?
1833646
Couldn't say. I have one of these and it works great. Also, it is extremely high quality.

I assume it's because the mini is designed for use on paintball tanks. Basic is designed for use on regular co2 tanks, if you want to use it on a paintball tank you'll require an adapter.

I just set this up the other day on my 50 gal tank and it should work but this kit is really badly made. The valve didnt even fit on the co2 bottle. I had to take a wrench and C-clamp to get it on(which took me 1 hour to finally get it on) after that it was working fine only for it to run out of co2. it didnt even last a full 24 hours. plus buying refills for this will cost you a fortune long term. you are better off buying a betting more pricey co2 system. I got mine for 170. and refiles are pretty cheap and environmentally friendly cuz you dont have to buy a new canister every time and just refill the same one. this thing is cheap cr*p. don't get it.

I don't know if it's an upgrade, but the main difference is that the SodaStream Pure uses a lever to inject the CO2, and the other ones, I believe, use a button. Also, the size of the CO2 tank is larger for the Dynamo and Source. Hope that helps!

The adaptor fits to any regular co2 regulator.. It allows small paintball tanks to pressurize

I swapped out the batteries and it has worked fine. I love the sodastream product. I use it for "club soda" and it is great. Check batteries before you give up on it.

you can buy an adapter for the paintball co2 from sodamod.com and save tons of money.

I am using this co2 bottle as a replacement for the 14.5 oz. tank that came with my SodaStream Source. Note: I am using the adaptor from SodaMod to use this bottle with my SodaStream Source, so if you already have an adaptor that will use a "paintball" type of co2 bottle, it should work.

I have this item and I get mine refilled at the local paintball store. They sell CO2. You can also go to a welding supply store that fills welding tanks

If you are already familiar with Airsoft to bulk CO2 tank adapters then all you need is another adapter from this prefilled disposable to the larger bulk size. Look for the JT CO2 Tank Adaptor, 90gm. It will make this cylinder match the larger refillable bulk CO2 tanks. If you are not familiar with bulk CO2 adapters there are youtube videos about making them to fit Airsoft.

This "thing" is an adapter that goes onto any standard "paint ball" CO2 canister/bottle so that the bottle can be used in place of the CO2 cylinder that came with the SodaStream. The cylinder that comes with the SodaStream has a non-standard head that screws into the Sodastream. Using this adapter allows use of a standard paint ball cylinder/bottle at a fraction of the cost. Standard paint ball bottles can be refilled at most Sporting Goods stores for $5.00 give or take a dollar. The SodaStream bottles must be sent back to SodaStream to be refilled or exchanged at a cost of $25 - $50 depending on the size of the bottle. This adapter goes on top of the paint ball cylinder and allows it to screw into the SodaStream machine. Works great!!!

From experience, no. The CO2 will leak and freeze off the the rubber on the adapter and you will have to replace it before the next use.

Paintball tanks have a universal size valve, so yes it will fit all paintball co2 tanks

I believe only Primo bottles work. These bottles are thick walled to withstand the pressure created by infusing the water with carbon dioxide gas. There is an adapter included for the CO2 tanks however.

i have two bottles and just bought a new empire co2 tank (off amazon) and no matter how i adjust the SodaMod adapter pin, the new tank does not work. any tips? (i know how to adjust the adapter pin up and down but that doesnt work). could the new bottle be over filled? one time it blasted out co2 but then stopped working after that

I assume you mean, "Is there any difference in beverage quality when using this canister compared to the canister that came with the SodaStream." No, there is no difference. You have to also get a brass adapter to use this canister (it is available on Amazon). If you make a lot of fizzy water this method is great - easy refill at any sports store for ~$3!!!

The Fizz Giz comes with a product guide that will let you purchase the home station. It works with standard CO2 cylinders from 5-20lbs that you'd find for beer carbonation, or you can use paint ball tanks. Yes they're ok for use in carbonating beverages, but if you're concerned Amazon sells a beverage grade CO2 paintball tank. The nice thing is that you can put the tank under your sink or in a cabinet, you can easily disconnect the tank, pop a co2 bulb in and you're free to take it on the go to work or party. Can't put the other carbonators in your brief case and carbonate 2 liters of soda at work -- which is a lot less than $1 per can out of the vending machine!
