Think of it like this; you have a 5 lb bag (A1000 regulator) and your pump puts out 6 lbs of **** (Pro pump). Now the 5 lb bag is at capacity, but it's handling the 6lbs of **** you're throwing at it because it was a little oversized to begin with. Now you start throwing 15 lbs of **** at your 5 lb bag. Your bag is too far over capacity and can't handle all that ****. **** stacks up. Pressure creep in layman's terms, by SC.

There are no blockages, regulator diaphragm is in good condition as well. It instantly started when i upped to 16 volts. Im going to see how it does tomorrow.
