Need a small tank that can be filled with a cheap compressor

The Ninja tank has a max output of 850 psi, you would need to get a tank with the ez fill station, or the new pcp version of the Ninja 90ci tank. These range from $350-$400. The omega or the 3l tank which Yo posted would be better choices, but I don’t think you can fill the eBay 3l tank at a dive shop or paint shop, I don’t think they are DOT certified.
 
Your compressor should be able to fill any size tank as long as you don't try to fill it in one go. Just fill it in stages and give the thing a rest to cool down in-between stages. Your pump won't know the difference between filling that way and topping your gun off, using the same amount of air.

I placed an order for a Guppy with all the trimmings from Joe Brancato yesterday morning. It should be shipping out today. Knowing it's DOT certified, I don't have to worry about the handful of dive shops in my area that will fill it. I'm glad they can fill to 4500 PSI and they also top it off. $3.00 a fill from empty or above 3000 PSI. Not a bad deal. My next major investment would be a reliable HPA compressor. 
 
Just an alternative suggestion, I run these paintball bottles hiking with them in my backpack when out in the field hunting. Only difference with these from other small bottles they never expire. Hydro every 5 years is all. FS Hero 2.0 88/4500 and looks pretty cool too. A better alternative than the 90ci Benjamin bottle going for over twice the price. 90ci 4500 Benjamin tank 

But for home and range usage the 3L tank Yo mentioned is your best option in bang for your bucks. I have one of those also. It's a pretty decent tank with regulator valve, gauges and fill hose included.

This is exactly what i’m after, for home use I would like to just use my compressor but I just wanted something for maybe 2-3 fills when out hiking or camping. what all did you have to buy to make this work for filling your airgun?
 
What you will need is an ASA fill adapter rated to handle unregulated 4500 psi. There are a few options out there. I had to learn this stuff the hard way which was costly but I finally ending with a workable system. Most of this stuff is for the Paintball industry to be used with their paintball markers but can be adapted to be used with HPA/PCP guns also.

First option is the least expensive but also has the greatest downside to using it.Ninja 4500psi Fill station with bleed valve This valve setup will do the job and do it quickly but can also damage your gun if you're not careful to watch the fill pressure closely. Then shut it off quick before it over pressurize your gun to 4500 psi. I learned this the very hard and costly way. This type of ASA bonnet valve screws on top of the threaded ASA regulator that is install on the bottle.

Next option cost more but is what I ended up going with in the end after all my experimenting and has worked wonders for me in the field.Ninja EZ slow fill Valve system this valve system allows you to slowly fill your gun to the recommended psi and then keep turning the valve to the off position and it automatically bleeds the pressure from the fill line. With this system you have to remove the old ASA threaded regulator valve from you bottle and install this new Ninja EZ valve. There are Ytube vids that cover the install and usage of this valve.

Last is the most expensive option and it's an All In One package. It has the Ninja EZ valve already installed on a small 90ci bottle. Ninja EZ valve and 90ci bottle Combo Package 

Well I hope this helps and keeps you out in the field longer enjoying your outing and your gun!
