Title: $300> Scuba Compressors! Finally!
Post by: DU-BB on March 09, 2018, 09:11:43 AM
I just bought one, and got it set up. I filled my 13ci tank in less than 5 minutes, I'm filling my 80ft tank from pretty much empty right now, and timing it. This little bugger does as advertised, and it was the right price. I have wanted my own compressor for ages, I just had a price cap on it, this fit right in.

UPDATE: I had some issues, the foster fitting on the included hose worked fine with the fill nipple on my 13ci tank, but leaked with my other foster plugs, so I changed the socket on said included hose, now everything seems to be working. I fitted it up to my scuba fill station.

This little bugger is working pretty well! It takes a little while, but not like the shoebox does. Funny thing is now I only completely fill my little 12ci tank, I'm probably never fill my big tanks up more than 2000psi. I like to run those direct, unregulated, and that's as brave as I am willing to get.

Funny you mention this. Mine will land tomorrow. After dicking around with my other one from Mrodair I am sure constant oil changes are the key to keeping these these inexpensive compressors working.
