I have a 10lb co2 tank that i use in my beer fridge. I could easily use this for an air compressor. What type of regulator and hose would you recommend for attaching to a co2 tank. Thanks in advance!
Airing down. And up.

Most of the people I've talked to recommend PowerTank regulators. Smittybilt has one but I've heard of some failures with the regulators. https://powertank.com/collections/regulators

A 150 lb. regulator:

1/4 inch hose and fittings is another $25, easily found anywhere.
Powertank is a total waste of money, you can put together you're own setup for far less, plus you already have a tank.

You don't even need a fancy regulator. There are statically set units on Amazon that are about $40. They won't have a pressure gauge and will typically be set at 150 PSI. You could use an inline pressure gauge to allow you to check pressure without disconnecting the hose from the tire. I haven't gotten around to it yet, but plan to just buy a Co2 tank and one of these type regulators.
There are charts online that will give you a good estimate how many fills you can get on a certain size tank with a certain size tire. Just keep a running log of how many times you use the tank and running out of air shouldn't be an issue. I'll also keep a cheap air pump on hand as a backup. It will be slow, but I won't be stranded without air.
