I've also wondered if a conversion kit could be manufactured for the existing WE CO2 mags that would replace the 12g and retaining nut with a small reservoir and fill valve? I'd love to end my reliance on 12g powerlets!

If you are talking about this, they are only testing the magazine at higher pressure to show that it doesn't leak. The pressure in the magazine is a fraction that of the 12g cartridge, the rest is spewed out from the nozzle while filling it. It's a very poor way of leak testing a magazine. In the end you can see very little gas is in the magazine as he vents out the gas.
