I'm happy for you guys with places to fill your tanks so close to where you live. I had to drive an hour each way and that got old. So, not I'm having the 6k psi Nitrogen tank delivered to my house. Lasts for about 6 months.

The only place around me (10 minute drive) that I can get a 4500 fill, is the paint ball shop and they charge $20. After seeing what you guys a paying, I feel like I should be grabbing my ankles :-(

Doug, don't feel too bad when I took my Great White tank to vintage paintball in MN last fall they wanted $36 per fill which was extortionate! I ate the first fill as Imwas out of options, and I had to leave it overnight, so two trips each way as their tanks are piddly small. In the end I found another place a little further away called FantaSea Scuba and they can fill my tank in 10 minutes very slowly to get a nicely cooled air charge inside for $6 so while I was looking for a compressor, That search has fallen by the wayside for now. If I get any more guns though, I may revisit that and think about a new compressor if that happens as my 97 cu ft Tank will only go so far.

If I had a place 5 minutes away I never would have bought the Daystate compressor, but now that I have it, I love it!

My 6000psi nitrogen tank has a 86.00 yearly lease and 90.00 swap out when down to 2500 psi. Keeping log book to see how long it lasts. I hunt only and do not shoot as much as most maybe. I top up a great white from 2500 to 4500 psi.

Daxx, the company that I use is called Airgas,and the cost is $110 per fill, $45 lease per year and $35 delivery fee. At two tanks per year, that's $335 per year. At some point I'll break down and get a Daystate compressor.
