if anyone knows where to get a 3.5 oz tank shout....
will an 88 gram disposable do?

ive got one and the adaptor seems to have a non return pin in it so the cannister could be refilled, it says not to but there is no reason why it couldnt be, physically i mean.
the cartridge is pierced like a 12 gm so you cant refill it but with the adapter on it, it becomes a standard co2 bottle,
i see little difference between a 12oz bottle with a valve screwed in to it and a 88gm and a valve screwed on to it, espescially if it was loctited! no burst disk i suppose! would be the discresion of the filler/site in my eyes.
or pay the £5 per use?
hope that helps

DO NOT refill 88s.

They are not designed to be refilled, the container is too weak and not designed to cope with being pressurised and depressurised, IT WILL GO BANG.

The adapter is simply so you can screw them into a standard bottle mount.

I've just ordered a 12 gram quick charger from JCS Sports for about £7, having said that I've had an e-mail from their third party payment people saying the payments gone through but the website still says the items are in my basket. There seemed to be a crash on the site just after I'd put my credit card details in.

So either I've got a cheap quick changer or my credit card details are for sale on the internet!

Anyone else had problems with paying on their site?
