Above is a mostly complete list (though missing things like motorized, accordian-type, and peristaltic-based pumps). While some of the options noted above aren't currently available from the typical water blaster manufacturer, they do represent things that have been toyed with by both manufacturers, modders, and home-made builders. Of course, some of the listed choices may also not yet be optimized or mostly theoretical so keep this in mind when voting. Vote for preferred based on your realistic imagination on what could be done with a pressurization system, not necessarily on just what has been done thusfar.

If the method of pressurization you prefer is not one of the poll choices, post it below to bring your thoughts forward and share your ideas with the community. If you have ideas on how to improve various pressurization systems, post those, too.

Soak on!

I voted cylindrical, but as long as it's CPS or some derivative, it really doesn't matter to me. I just voted cylindrical because of the 2000/2500.

I went for Air Pressure, in the form of battle-practical APHs. I have plans for an entire "line" of such homemades. Believe it or not, there is still so much pioneering to be done with APHs, although most would rather skip over that and go for expensive and battle-impractical CAP guns.

Building higher floors is fine, but the foundation has not been completed yet!

On my agenda is a better pump seal, 4 APR-line homemades, making homemades more accessible, easier to build, and most importantly, useable in fast-paced 1HK wars. :cool:

^ There are some homemade water blasters that use CO2-regulators. Info can be found somewhere online. :goofy:
