Gx cs4i vs Tuxing 9 liter

Curious as to why you put the pellet sleeves around the filter.
Are you planning on filling that tank in one go from empty? If so, no lol, but I'd like to be proved wrong.

I know my Tuxing TXEDMO42 would overheat if I ran it long enough to fill my 9L tank.

The pellet sleeves were part of the temporary cob job to attach filter. I didn’t want to drill into the new compressor so one existing screw ( although larger) in bottom mount , foam for space between the two, and a zip tie holding it all together

Different kinds of compressors. This has been running for two hours and ten minutes. Luke warm water. Manufacturer states a five hour run time.

Hi Matt, I have the 042 coming. Why? It was cheap. I been thinking about filling tank as far as possible till it gets hot for it’s speed then letting the Gx take over and mosey along to finish

I have a GX CS4, I know they claim 5 hours continuous, but in not willing to push it that hard. 1 hour for me is good. Just my .5 cents.

I know all 4 of you interested in this post are anxiously awaiting an update… haaaa
about an hour ago on the bottle the larger oil filled gauge started pouring out its oil. Out of concern for safety I bought what I thought was a better valve and double gauge than the ones Tuxing supplies with bottles. Made a call to Topgun Airguns and they
will send a new gauge.
I thought that might end my experiment but didn’t see any sign of an air leak so let it go on.
It’s approaching four hours and passing 220 bar. Grease and water fills are only warm to the touch, no more than it was at one hour.
To get to 300 bar I can see will take longer than five hours I think, gonna let it carry on.

Oil filled gauges on a bottle is pointless. Their designed to damper vibrations on equipment. So marketing baloney on this. They also need the pressure to be released from time to time with the plug and that plug should be upright.

Same here. That's pretty much how they are offered. If I was to replace it, I will go non filled.

Was it supposed to have that grey plug ? Do you have to keep the hole pointing up ?
thanks “toothie”

edit: found grey plug a foot away

Yes, you need that plug in and facing up. I just noticed now yours is missing, thought for a minute it was black.
