Conner, save your money, buy an E5K1: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CYGZLG9T Or perhaps an E5K2: https://www.amazon.com/Compressor-Auto-Stop-Compression-Continuous-Paintball/dp/B08D91F6XJ/ And never look back. Think about your experience with the YH. Don't repeat it.

Caveat Emptor... https://www.airgunnation.com/threads/praise-for-the-shoebox-booster.1313226/

Get the CS4 like you were talking about here: https://www.airgunnation.com/threads/thoughts-on-the-gx-cs4.1313258/ and you will have less headaches to deal with, plus a lot more room left over.

That's really helpful info, thanks @archerhmr . I suspect a lot of us here wouldn't run a compressor 2 hours a month normally. I know I do not.

It's been discussed a bit in the past month or two... https://www.airgunnation.com/threads/2024-cs4-setup.1307075/ https://www.airgunnation.com/threads/gx-cs4-i-new-compresor-from-alibaba-with-internal-power-supply-dash-i.1308513 https://www.airgunnation.com/threads/gx-cs4-grease-pot.1308107/...

I figure those will work, but it has always bugged me that they don't give the pressure rating on them. For the record, the CS4 burst discs are 6.7mm. My kit came with 6 spares.

GX focuses on compressors (damn fine ones, in fact), without distraction with other product lines. Not sure what your point was?

Just a WAG, but I suspect the internal PS is a tad more sensitive to loads. Have had this happen with mine twice. Shut it off, wait 30 seconds, and it starts right up.

Have you tried turning it off for 30 seconds and turning it on again? What about using 12vdc instead of AC?

I'm gald you understood what he was trying to say better than I. Thanks!! (Might have had something to do with no sleep for 36 hours, lol)

Dude, that is awesome!! I've never seen a self-filling HPA tank before. :LOL:

You DO realize that there is a metal tank inside all those fibers on SCBA tanks, right? It kinda has to fail before the fibers do.

I reached out to Joe on FB as to the incident, but to date, he hasn't replied. Not that he is required to, and I'm sure he's been more focused on recovering than on talking to strangers. Hopefully his recovery goes better than usual.

Probably whatever he had laying around, because that isn't the grease that comes from the factory.

And that's my point. A GX compressor can do 5800 psi. The AEA can allegedly hit 7000 psi. But those are MAX output ratings, and no tank has been made to hold either charge, so asking if there is a hydro facility that can test it is kind of moot, IMO. And most people who own their own...
