GLA Automic CO2 Regulator V3 vs. Victor

[neturalist]

Has anyone tried the GLA Automic CO2 regulator V3? I need a new regulator/solenoid and this caught my eye.

I also found a Victor ESS4-200-320 Dual Stage Regulator and wanted to see if anyone tried fitting this for planted tank use.

I use a plain regulator similar to the one in your amazon link. I don't have any pre-outfitted regulators.

Some of the folks at TPT have tried that GLA regulator and they really like it, the build quality is excellent.

As for the Victor, you could do much better watching Ebay for a used dual stage regulator of much higher quality. By the time you add a solenoid and needle valve to the Victor your costs will be around $300 or slightly more and you could do much better watching Ebay. I sell them for around $230 with a Burkert 6011 Solenoid and a Fabco needle valve.

This is a $1400 regulator that I purchased for $50 on Ebay, these deals are hard to come by but if you watch and wait you can find them.

Send me a PM anytime if you need help.

What regulator is included in $230? Thanks.

I normally use a Burkert 6011 solenoid with a Fabco NV-55 needle valve and any good quality dual stage regulator I can find on Ebay in the $50 to $70 dollar range. Lately the good deals on Ebay have been non-existant but I look nightly. If you are interested in one of these send me a pm and we can talk about it, below are photos of a couple I just sold a few months ago.

I'm interested. How much do you sell them for?
