    I just bought a 2nd hand co2, and one of the valve is showing 40 psi, I have read that many bros have it at 25psi. What's the difference between having 40psi and 25psi?

    Also, It doesn't seem to have a screw head for me to adjust the needle. If I like to change it to 25psi, how could I do so?

    You cant, new regulator normally have 40 psi working pressure. It is better especially if you want to use inline diffuser or atomizer

    always better to have higher than lower working pressure.. unless it's way too high like 100psi..
