Purchased one of Amazon's $250 shoebox compressors and have been happy with it.
When I first purchased, it would start at 19⁰ and finish at 26⁰ and take 1min 32 seconds average to fill from 100-200bar.
Last night I aired up my rifle and heard it squeaking a bit, noticed it slowed down significantly at about 160bar and didn't get to 200bar for another 1min 44 seconds.
Overall end temp of compressor is finishing at 43⁰
×××EDIT××× This was fill number 23 for transparency
BIG DIFFERENCE!
I'll pull the shroud off of it and see what she needs. I do have 2 rebuild kits for it that came with it, so we'll see.
I'll add pics of rebuild and show you what I've found. May help someone else.
