Tank and tank compressor

[Airgunner79]

I’m looking into getting large tanks ,and compressor to fill them. What is the best compressor for the job. With filtration system, on it. Was going to buy another gun. But think I would be better off investing in this. Could could in joy what I have a little more. I have jts dc/110 now. On it fourth year of use with no work done to it. I’m on borrowed time with it. Waiting on small cheap one I ordered to come as a back up. Thanks for info!

I will be in the minority here as less expensive compressors have their fans on the forum.
Don’t scrimp on a compressor for filling bottles. The small ones will have a very long run time to fill or top off an air bottle compared to the larger ones. Run time means heat and heat is the death of a compressor. It is why you read about people doing bottle fills with shut off time and water cooling etc.
I bought two 110V compressors and came away with a sour taste in my mouth from them. My current one is a Daystate/Coltri 230V. I top off my two 98 cf bottles from about 180 bar to 300 bar and it takes less time to do both of those than a small compressor could do one bottle of that size.
They are expensive but with the ability to rebuild the top ends and replace pistons fairly easily, a quality compressor is a multi decade investment.
