Genuine Innovations Cornelius Keg CO2 Charger

CO2 Cartridges

The injector will work with commonly available threaded CO2 cartridges.

These are very expensive at bike shops, upwards of $5 each for 16 gram units.

3/8-24UNF-1A thread. Note: Schreader valves are 5/16–32 thread.

They can be got for much cheaper, the key is to ensure that the cartrige is made up of pure CO2:
