Well got my first air tank- got the Tuxing 4500 Psi - 4.7L , really nice tank- finished a little while ago filling it- used my GX CS4 compressor- took 2 hours and 24 minutes to fill from completely empty to 4500 psi, thinking I will really enjoy the tank- makes for a quick fill on my Gauntlet.
Tuxing 4.7L
- Thread starter woody1956
- Start date
Started with the Tuxing 3 liter and about a week later went right to a 9. Actually looked for a 12 but they start in the $400s
i think it’s nice gear and don’t know how spending more for a tank can be any better. I am going to get a 6.8 for traveling to range even though I don’t feel the 9 is that big.
I have the Gx cs4i . It took 5 hours 10 minutes straight to fill the new 9 from empty, no problem. Love that speed of a tank vs putting gun on compressor each fill. You do it when new to pcp like I did but not for long

I will get the 6.8 L next- it is about $220- thats a good all around size- really enjoying being in PCP- great past time.

These are great carry bags for the tanks, at a good price. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0CR19L6F2/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&th=1

The 3 liter is a bit small for my .457 texan doesn't fill as many times as I'd like think I'll snag a 6 or a 9 soon and use the 3l for my avenger

I've got a 45 min (6.8L) SCBA tank. I am thinking of getting a 3L for the portability. I already have a 1.6L Hatsan tank, but it feels a bit small.
Maybe I just need a good carry bag for the 6.8L tank.

My problem with the 4.7L is No Boots
I have boots on 3L, 6.8L and 9L.
Yeah, i have too many tanks... probably going to sell my 3L tether rigs.

There are regulated fill valves available.
The Huben Power fill valve has been out of stock for quite a while.
AliExpress has one that works well, I have a couple.
I have one set for 2200PSI and one for 2700PSI.
I am down to only 1 rifle for the 2200PSI so I will retask or sell that setup.
Have them on 3L tanks and use them as my mobile tether rigs.
My 6.8 & 9L are my fill tanks, just have the unregulated fill valves.
Go through a lot of air futzing around overnight sometimes and don't want to use the compressor at night and disturb my neighbors.

Try getting you a carry bag- I just got a bag for my 4.7 L tank, very nice padded bag from Amazon at a great price- its the Ambitful tripod carry case- I got the 31.49 inch size for my tank, just right size with a little extra room, they have several different lengths, mine cost = $24.18 delivered price- very nice bag, https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CR19L6F2?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title&th=1 highly recommend it.

That is another issue with the 4.7L, no specific carry bags. 6.8L work and the Acecare is $15.
I don't get the lack of accessories for the 4.7L. 3L, 6.8L, 9L all have a plethora of options

I got that, you adapted one for use with the 4.7L. My point was unlike the others there is no OEM bag specific to the 4.7L. There are also no boots for standing them, again, unlike the 3L, 6.8L and 9L.
Just seems strange the 4.7L is an OEM accessory orphan. Seems like a great size for portable use.

I had that valve on my 6.7L with a 7/8-14 UNF hole. But after about a year it gave me problems opening/closing when it was at 4500psi. I since got one like on my other tanks that works great. Easy to open and close regardless of pressure.

Is it adjustable or tank pressure?
If adjustable do you have a link?
I like adjustable for tethering, you can set up for your lowest pressure gun and tether any gun without worrying about over pressure. As long as the regulator works

IORMAN 300bar / 4500psi High... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0798LSYFR?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share That’s the one I purchased. Shows currently unavailable. And yes you can open it to the pressure you want.
