    Bro, I think instead of comparing just the prices. You may also want to consider whether got spare parts anot.. If got no spare parts means you have to buy new one when your spoil so more $$$ spent...

    Right.....JBJ has spare, NA sell the solenoid coil at $25 in case it fail....But sad to say, JBJ solenoid is very hot, I think 50-60degC.

    I don't really like hot solenoid, I believe it also consume more power, cost more on you electric bill.

    Not hot but no spare, or hot with spare, and both are cheap,....you choose it yourself.

    I'm using a Tiren 2 guage regulator+solenoid. Bought it for $85, not hot at all.

    There is another one which cost $130, forgot the brand.

    Bought my from Ong's Aquarium @ Pasir Ris Farmway today together with my 3.5L CO2 tank.

    Ai yoh! still don't sleep ah?

    Solenoid (just the coil) cannot be replace but the solenoid + valve can be replaced if you want to.

    It cost about $51, expensive? but this is real good staff, from europe, really from itally or german.

    Unlike what JBJ or Tiren promise, all bull****, how can solenoid from German where the whole set cost only $85-$130???

    I don't sell lah!....got check the buseness directory (phonebook) look for valves/solenoid/pneumatics.

    Ask for 230volt, normally off valve, 1/8'NPT thread.
    Can withstand 145psi pressure.

    Thats all folks
