Which is one of the reasons I stayed with 1/4" valves. Going up to 1/2" 
stuff seemed to imply needing lots more actuating forces. If 1/8" had 
been available, I likely would have bought one of those as an 1/8" port 
should have supplied sufficient air.

besides, I only have the output regulator turned up to 60 or so, enough 
to clean the area with a hand nozzle.
