New Yong Heng progress report

Just coming up on a month with the new YH. Thought I'd report on what's going on. After 3.5 years of service from my 1st Yong Heng I was curious what the new one would be like. I'm really pleased so far. New one is beefier, heavy duty bolts holding the LP cylinder. ALL bolts, tubing compression nuts, burst disc, etc. were cinched down tight enough that I didn't have to do anything. Maybe quality control is getting better there. I've run it 5 times to top off tanks. Yesterday was the 5th time. Tank was at 3700psi, topped off to 4250psi in 10 minutes flat. Pleased with that. Temp never got above 45.6 Celsius, that's fine. What REALLY pleases me is the oil has ZERO discoloration, still as full & crystal clear as the day I put it in. That wasn't the case with my 1st YH. Changed oil 3 times in 1st month til it stopped discoloring so badly. All in all, I'm happy so far. Only time will tell if I get the same longevity as my 1st one but, for now, I'll allow myself a sigh of relief.
