Igl is the only supplier of gas co2
And they only rent the big steel tanks, a pia to move. $34/month
Gas is cheap $70 fill, those big tanks will last forever.
I eventually bought an aluminum soft drink type co2 tank online and shoulda do that a long time ago
As the money I spent on tank rental woulda pay for it.
The bad news is the big name machines are more expensive now since they use inverter technology now,
Much smaller and lighter.
There are many Chinese noname ones now but not sure about them, however one of bigger name ones is called everlast and they have a us distributor.

but the tank is the issue
IGL can lease you a tank for $20/month or something like that
it will be the big tank so
or you can buy your own.

I bought an aluminium soft drink co2 tank on ebay or amazon
cant remember which
you can't scratch your name on the tank, only paint it on.
