That will help convince me to sell you one. For instance, the chains stretch as a normal part of breaking in. If you can't look at this product and figure out how to tension the chains, I don't want to sell you one from the first batch.

    Money is tight right now but seeing that I have to stop off after work today to get my bottles filled again I will take one anyhow.

        If so I know a guy.
        I'm a Mechanical Engineer in the pump industry, with previous experience with industrial compressors and the like. As a note: 4500 PSI is no longer high pressure for me. I've worked in a gas phase process with pressures in excess of 30,000 psi-g

        I'd be more than happy to trial a unit, but don't have the funds or the need for it. I can pick up fills locally easily enough.

                Awesome! I'm still in if I can be! Really, $390 is a great price for anyone that does a lot of tinker/test/tuning or doesn't live near a shop or field. By the time I account for gas, cost of fills, and the hassle/cost of my time to drive 1+ hours to/from a shop, that works out to like 10 fill trips..I'll blow through that in the first couple of months.

                Other than chain tension and lubrication, how much routine maintenance are you expecting, running on average maybe 3-4 times a month? Are the parts generally user-serviceable and are there/will there be parts kits for seals and such available should they be needed?

                  Tom if you can piggy back these compressors, can i assume a shop compressor with higher input than 85psi will slightly decrease fill time?

                  Also anyone looking to do aftermarket parts: may i suggest making a converter for switching auto shut off to 3000 and 4500?

                  I would buy that upgrade soooo fast.

                    It looks like the compressor has a quick disconnect on it. If that's correct, a Ninja Fill Whip should work just fine. They are about $20 and are rated for 4500 psi.
