Morini cylinders
A nice feature about these new cylinders is that they also tells you how many shots you have left.
Well, they could measure how much air the pistol takes for each shot. I don't know if they do this, but they could ...Tycho wrote:Wonder how the tank knows the setting of the V0.

Wouldn't that need the gauge to have a shot sensor built into it. I suppose that's possible, but I bet it hasn't ;-)Marcos wrote:Well, they could measure how much air the pistol takes for each shot.

Just as a FYI, the new cylinder is slightly heavier than the old manometer version. Not sure if the men will notice, but for me, I can definitely notice the weight difference on a Morini short. The shot counter is only an estimate. Mine still showed 10 shots left when the cocking lever locked. The new one does seem to get more shots than the old ones.

They have a shot sensor. Every time the pistol takes new air, a shot has been fired. :-)David Levene wrote:Wouldn't that need the gauge to have a shot sensor built into it.

There is a detailed instruction manual for this at the morini websites download section http://www.morini.ch/download.phpGwhite wrote:I'm not familiar with the digital version. Do they require batteries? If so, are they "normal" button cells of some flavor?
The last thing I need is another Morini product that requires weird batteries...
Does it give a count down to the doom's day or does it just goes bang?j-team wrote:The LCD display automatically self destructs after 10 years.Gwhite wrote:I assume they are stamped with a 10 year lifetime?

Interesting. They have a calibration process so the shot count will take into account the gas usage for the pellets being shot & velocity setting of the pistol.There is a detailed instruction manual for this at the morini websites download section http://www.morini.ch/download.php
They also note that the units aren't interchangeable, which suggests the pressure sensor calibration is stored in the readout assembly. That could make it difficult to repair/replace one if it ever dies.
If they'd just leave that date off it would solve a bunch of annoying problems. I don't think anyone makes them put it on but their lawyers.Gwhite wrote:I assume they are stamped with a 10 year lifetime?
