Extreme booster pump arrived
- Thread starter autodoc
- Start date
I would say yes if you shoot a lot or have big bore guns. Should lessen the load on my compressor.

"I did not check to see what was left in the guppy tank, but I will."
This is the key. Just how much do we get out of a tank that's already below 3000 psi.
Thanks

I know nothing about these so please be gentle.
Is 4500psi as high as it goes, or could it be used to fill a Huben k1 to 5000psi.

Is Della your Lab?
Checked gauge tonight when I got home from work. Shows 1800 psi on gauge.

Good question.
I think it would be able to go to 5000 psi, would just want to make sure the fittings/hoses were rated for that pressure.

Thanks Doc. Sounds like it burns it pretty quick. But at least you get to use it.
Yes, Della is my girl. Sadly she passed a few months ago. Love Labs.

It is only rated for 4500psi. https://hardairmagazine.com/news/how-to-use-the-extreme-booster-pump/ note fourth pic down...

Sorry to hear about your Della, cannot replace a dogs love. We love labs also They are our number 1 when it comes to family dogs.. But we share our love and have Akita’s also.
I will do a more accurate test this weekend at the range weather permitting. I could have been off last night, as the gauge on the guppy tank is small, it was late and I am old.

I tried that link, from my iPad it is broken. But I did find this and can probably find more info when I have more free time. Not sure if you can read the small print, but Brent the person who builds the booster talks about boosting his tanks to 5000 psi and his guppy tank to 5000 psi. He mentions it more then once.

Sorry, looks like I snagged a little extra in my cut-n-paste. Link fixed.

Wow - this is really pretty cool. Seems to be using the same concepts at the Altaros booster, which I ordered a few days ago as my F10 is needing more frequent work to keep it running. Instead of a solenoid automating the airflow switches, it's done manually here a few times with a big green button.

Sean,
I had not seen the Altaros booster until I had already ordered the Extreme pump. I ordered the pump and a .457 rifle together. The Altaros B2B seems more refined and an excellent choice.
I know the Extreme pump requires no electricity at all, none, nothing. I think the Altaros needs electrical connection. I plan on using the pump at the range and field where electric might not be an option. Although I do have a generator in that RV you saw me in.

Good Question,
By the looks of the unit, I would have to say easily rebuilt. I will check Monday on parts availability and ask about life span
