Pic Description: This is (or was) my dream cannon, the one that I had longed to build since my first potato gun. This being my 10th cannon I've built, it is by far the most powerful! 4 1" Rainbird valves going to a Toro 3/4" inline for a trigger make up the firing system. Tanks are both 3" x 2.5' and the barrel is a 2.5" x 5' from Spud Tech. Unfortunately I have yet to get any real specks on it's performance, but it'll lob a tennis ball clear out of sight at only 80PSI!

Next to the cannon is my Christmas present, a 150 PSI 6gal air compressor! I need to put in a reg-bypass to get the output to 150PSI, but it's still a lot better then my 12v emergency compressors I have been using. By sir_pyro

it would be easier to charge and you would lose no power if the two chambers were connected, well unless you wanted to be able to fire twice then you could fire 2 valves and then the other one

A sprinkler valve is a valve that opens by remote. You hook up batteries to it and a momentary switch. When you press the momentary button, the valve opens twice as fast as a ball valve.
