Question What is difference with LP?

Okay, seeing as this is my first nitro tank, i figured i should ask around what the difference is between LP and HP? If i run my marker off a LP tank,what is the difference in performance between that and an HP tank? Will running it at such a low pressure decrease the volume of the shot? Thanks a lot, any and all advice and help is appreciated.
(planning on a diablo wrath w/ 72/4500 stubby LP) JUST so you know

Check here for answers on HP vs LP.
Basically your best bet is to get a HP tank, because you can run an LP marker on it because of regs. I don't know what pressure the Wrath runs on... but like I said, ya can't go wrong with a HP tank.

The difference is the regulator on the end of the tank. LP is preset to 400-450 output, while HP is around 800. IMO, HP is better because it recharges faster, works with any gun (LP wont work with a spyder), and.. thats about it.

This is from the gun description...

The Vise Grip Feed Neck, Quik-Strip bolt, vertical foregrip regulator, ported barrel and high speed air-ram operation ...

Can it run off of LP? The guy that I am about to deal with has a 72/45 stubby at LP.

And i just found this...

Secondly, the whole thing can run at low pressures with low moving mass, resulting in a very nice feel to the gun, usually only found on the top-end guns. And thirdly, the rate of fire doesn’t suffer.

Anyway, back to the nuts and bolts; what do you get for your three sheets of green? Well, the front reg is to all intents and purposes a Torpedo reg, a simple design that also works well on $1600 Rippers, so no complaints there.

Only marker you get LP for is Angels. Not too sure on why you need LP for Angels. LP tanks where made for markers that had bad regulators that would creep when HP was used. Now that most stock regulators are decent HP can be used.

With LP you run a risk of starving your marker for air, with HP you cannot starve your marker.

Their was something else I was gunna say but it slipped my mind. Ya, go HP!

Like he said most lower to mid end guns (what ur looking at) would not get the proper amount of input. So HP>LP unless your running a very low psi (correct me if im wrong)

Yea, on a lower end gun you could mod it use a low pressure system. On blowbacks this can decrease the kick, but you could still use a high pressure tank since the regulators would set the actual pressure going into the gun.
There is a school of thought that says running a high pressure tank on a low pressure gun stresses the regulator. So you just have to decide if you believe that or not.
