Default Power Tank/CO2 Tank Question:

I have a line on a CO2 tank from a kegerator with regulator that a guy is going to give me a great deal on. My question is, can these things be mounted laying down, or will that gas the gas to come out in a liquid form? I know this may sound like a stupid question, but I need to know, because my first choice would be to mount it laterally.

kind of a similar thing if you put an air tank up side down you get moisture. id mount it horizontal.IMHO saves room too.

Yeah, can be mounted sideways, but shouldn't be. The liquid is heavier so when its full your going to be getting liquid out of it until it is below the level of the hose output. Like XJSETH said, try to see if you can get it upright!
