I got my Yong Heng Compressor yesterday, and got it all ready for today.
I am currently filling an empty 74 cubic foot tank, and have yet to get it to the green after two 10 minute sessions. Why 10 minutes? I am worried about the heat building up, and causing damage. I know the instruction manual says to shut the compressor off at 75C, but I am trying to keep it down by going by time.
What is puzzling me is that the pressure gauge on the air tank reads when being filled by the compressor, but doesn't have any reading when not getting air from the compressor. That has got me wondering if the rifle manometer does the same as the compressor and air tank, no reading unless there is air being pumped into the system.
My temperature gauge would not stay on if bumped, and I was totally puzzled until I opened it up, and found one of the batteries unseated. I had to put small pieces of cardboard to put pressure on the batteries to keep them in place.
I didn't realize that this compressor would be stinky. I am filling the tank in my kitchen where I have some outlets. Why the kitchen? I do not have a garage or any other outside outlet, so the house is the only place I can do it.
The unit is very noisy, and I am going to find a way to power it up outside the next time I try filling my tank. It's as bad as an aircraft jet engine.
