Fluval mini pressurized CO2 system

[Bichir Bro]

Hello all! Im currently gathering the final supplies to begin the setting up of my fluval spec v planted tank!
I plan on having some high light plants and would love to have a pressurized CO2 system running but i am curious on some of yalls opinions on the fluval mini system. It seems great for my little tank but does anyone have any thoughts/complaints on it? Any recommendations for a better system for my tank? I'd prefer to stay away from a DIY setup.
Oh I will also be running the Current Satellite + Pro light if it helps.

It sucks, don't bother, a aquatek mini with a 20 oz. Paintball tank would be best

Ok I will definitely look up on that! The more I look the more I started to find better reviews on a paintball set up.

Update- just looked up on it and now I'm pretty sure the above recommended system is what I'll be going with if I can't find anything better. Nothing but bad was said on it, and the paintball equipment will be easy to refill since I live very close to a dicks sporting place!
Edited update- thanks brookster!

The Aquatek Premium Regulator with Cool Touch solenoid retails for $89 on Amazon. It can work with with regular or paintball tanks (with an adaptor). I think I got the 24 oz Valken* paintball tank for about $25 and adaptor for $15. I am averaging 3 refills a year (at $5 a refill).
* The reviews for the Valken brand indicated fewer problems than the Empire brand of paintball tanks

Yep, Dicks Sporting Goods has a refill program where they give you a fifth refill for free. Good deal.
