you can use a BC inflator, you would not be the first one. Just make sure its not 40 years old off some old BC in your closet, you want to use a newer one thats well lubricated so the button wont fail on you and stick in the open position. Dave.

Lure Angler,

I think that you finally understood the concerns of the folks telling you to use a valve. Even a BC inflator valve like Dave suggested controls the flow instead of getting a 140 psi blast of raw gas into your counterlung every time you crack the tank valve.
