If you play long scenario days, back multiple points without a break, or just hate stopping to refill, the 98ci gives you more cubic inches than any other Alpha Air size, still wrapped in the same lightweight carbon fiber construction and rated to a 4500psi fill.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt 10in long and 2lb 1.1oz (0.93kg), the 98ci is naturally the biggest and heaviest bottle in the line, but it still holds onto the same 4.4in diameter as every other Alpha Air size, so it drops into tank covers built for the smaller bottles — you'll just want one with a bit more length. Like the rest of the lineup, it's available in a wide range of color finishes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHK Army Alpha Air 98ci Key Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe largest capacity in HK Army's five-size Alpha Air lineup (48ci–98ci)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e98ci capacity, rated to a 4500psi fill, for maximum air between refills\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSame 4.4in diameter as the rest of the Alpha Air line\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFull carbon fiber wrap keeps even the largest bottle in the line reasonably light\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompatible with HK Army Standard, MP5, HP8, and Turbine Pro regulators, plus Ninja, Immortal Air, and Empire\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBottle only — pair with a regulator you already own, or build a complete system with our Tank Builder\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e98ci Specifications (Bottle Only)\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cstyle\u003e\n#aa98-specs { width:100%; border-collapse:collapse; margin:10px 0 20px; }\n#aa98-specs td { padding:10px 14px; border:1px solid #e2e2e2; }\n#aa98-specs tr:nth-child(odd) { background:#f7f7f7; }\n\u003c\/style\u003e\n\u003ctable id=\"aa98-specs\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCapacity\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e98ci\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWorking Pressure\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e4500 psi\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDiameter\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e4.4in \/ 112mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLength\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e10in \/ 254mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2lb 1.1oz \/ 0.93kg\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eUniversal Regulator Compatibility\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a bottle-only listing — no regulator is included.
