What have some of you bought and what’s your reviews of the “at home” high pressure compressors?

PCP for airgun type compressors?

I have had a shoebox for 15 years.
Works great but sadly they closed shop and no parts/rebuild kits available.
I use it to fill my four fire fitter tanks.
Best purchase I made,but there will be a time it needs replaced.

I have a Benjamin Nomad II. I’ve been using it for over a year and I’m very pleased with it.

Our 4H club has a booster pump, gifted to us from the NRA Foundation. It requires a feeder compressor that can run 5? or 6? cfm at 80psi, so a lot of conventional home use compressors can feed it. The trick we learned was to refill our scuba tanks when they get down to about 75% capacity. We don't have guns that feed direct from compressor.

Too much?

Try the Vevor from amazon.. sometimes way cheaper at Home Depot online. Not the best but a reasonable value pound for pound..

Funny you should mention that I’ve been looking at this model

Just so you know several other brands are built by vevor. Mophon comes to mind. If you want a full rundown on mine shoot a pm and we’ll trade phone numbers.

I've been using a Spritech to fill up my BSA R10 for a couple years now, I've had no issue with it.

I have a Yong Heng (similar to vevor) and while it's not the most intuitive or quiet tool in the world it works great for direct-gun use. I'm not sure I'd trust it to fill a large scba but a smaller buddy tank I'd not hesitate at all.

If you're looking to fill full size tanks - check out govdeals or publicsurplus and try to get a decomissioned fire dept compressor. Watch out for ones with particularly high hour count because sometimes the compressor rebuild kits are discontinued, but sometimes they just get sold because they're no longer recertifiable (for human breathing use).
