    New Daystate Super Leggero 110V 4500 psi Air Compressor Video

    I bet it’d be fast, might be almost too fast for a gun sized tank. Just a guess though.

    Taipan taipan veteran 2 for benchrest

    I’m guilty of being one of those guys wanting “more shots.” After playing with marauders I was craving something that would put 80-100 shots down range….oddly enough my marauder was modded out to the point I can get 60+ before falling off the regulator, but I have to say I really enjoy the side...

    Taipan taipan veteran 2 for benchrest

    For what it’s worth, I haven’t done much target/benchrest shooting with mine, but headshots on squirrels at all your expected ranges are very easy, as long as I don’t introduce a shooter issue (pull a shot etc). It’s as accurate as any rifle I’ve ever shot -air or powder burning. There’s always...

    Still holding pressure good, so all appears to be resolved I appreciate the help.

    Yong Heng compression fitting and gasket washer issues

    I just learned about what the shoebox compressor is a couple weeks ago….and I sure wish I’d have started the hobby earlier because now I want two of them, and they’re no longer available.

    WHICH COMPRESSOR?

    If I were you I’d strongly consider getting a bigger tank and just having it filled at a shop. There might be a decent option that you’d have good luck with at that price rang, but once you start making sure your air is good and dry with filters molecular sieves etc you’ll be in that another...

    Yeah, I was reading up on folks preferring 250 bar over 300. So that’s what I was leaning towards switching to. It held fast overnight…now if I can just keep my compressor running I’ll get back to shooting it! -an alkin can’t come fast enough.

    Yong Heng compression fitting and gasket washer issues

    Well, yong heng 2.0 blew its pressure guage even faster than the first one lol. I pulled my McMaster Carr oil filled Wika guage setup off 1.0 and plumbed it into this one.…this makes me think that a guage on the end of a fill line might be a better choice for “long term” use. That might help...

    Taipan Calling Taipan Pros

    Alright, I am not certain which seal was the problem, but judging by the bubbling locations it was either the manometer/guage seal or the one that mates the bottle section to the standard air reservoir. Of course the taipan “complete” reseal kit was missing more than one size Of orings. I...

    Yong Heng compression fitting and gasket washer issues

    Well, compressor #2 arrived this week and so far seems to be working well. Still waiting on the high pressure lines from China to repair compressor number one. I’m working on keeping my cycle times closer to 10 minutes rather than the 15 I was doing before. Also ordered some check valves from...

    Good point, I don’t think twice about chasing a squirrel in the rain… it’s kind of funny that I would have an issue with a spray bottle and soapy water.

    Taipan Calling Taipan Pros

    I recharged the gun and left the probe in with a balloon on it overnight, no leak at the fill port, I guess that leaves the regulator, guage, or bottle to pressure tube union. I was unaware that filling “too fast” could cause an issue with that oring. That said, from a pressure loading...

    Scba tank warning

    In my case I had an 18” wrench on there and still had to lets say ”shock” it loose…the round shape is challenging to hold securely while administering force.

    Alright, I’ll believe y’all! I’ll try and get to that tonight and update this.

    Yong Heng final test

    Thanks for sharing those ideas. You’ve done a nice job. For the record, how much do you suppose you have into your setup? Compressor, cart, radiator, cooling fans, pumps, fittings etc? I know it’s not all about money, most of us are tinkerers and it keeps us entertained. I for one, will be...
