just curious. I have heard that its two-cylinder brothers like the Tuxing is quieter although the basic design is the same ( or are they ? )
All the noise come sfrom them using a sintered bronze intake filter. You can replace the filter with any other using 1/4 bsp or npt thread. Or use a hose barb to relocate the filter.
It's normal to feel air go both ways through the filter.
My first compressor was then yong Heng and it was loud. I switch to the hatsan lighting and when I first turn on the hatsan, I was like wow. This thing is damn quiet. The yong heng is about twice as loud as the hatsan lighting. The yong Heng may be loud, but it's a fast compressor and will fill your guns on 2-4 mins Max.

What do you think is the reason behind the much lower noise level of the Hatsan ? My impression is that its basically two Yong Heng like heads sharing the same crank case and motor with external filtering and air cooling added.
But the lightning takes 3x more time than the YH (I have both)
Lightning is good for refill AG direct, YH for SCBA.

Looks like you've got that backwards.
@ airgunfans. I don't know why you whine about the noise that your pump makes. My YH purrs like a kitten compared to my lawn mower, brush cutter, leaf blower, chain saw, 9-inch angle grinder, shop compressor and other assorted Pneumatic power tools. I wear hearing protection whilst operating that stuff but don't bother when my little pump is humming along. Perhaps there is something wrong with yours.
