Interesting. Thanks for that. I have sent several people over there. Have to rethink that especially if your not gonna get 4500 if it is not in the storage bank. Since having my own compressor, I don't want to even think about going back to driving to Nashville for a fill. I now use twice as much air as in the past..smile... Brian

I'll chime in and say I am really happy with my AV.
Except for one little issue.
I now go through a whole lot more pellets!!
There should be a warning label about that!!

I have used mine for 6 months without any problems. I use inside my house so I don't get any moisture. It will fill my 60 minute SCBA tank in under 1 hour. Best purchase iv'e made in a long time.

I have only filled my 87 CF tank up twice with my new AV, but haven't had any issues with it (no black oil). Total runtime so far is 55.5 minutes including 10 minute break-in period. The compression pipes do get warm/hot, but I can place my hands on them without burning them. I am running 50/50 antifreeze along with purple ice. I purge every 5 minutes and get very little to no water or white oil build up with each purge. I don't stop the compressor when purging. I use synthetic IR all season compressor oil and it is a very clear oil. Probably will be changing it out soon just because of being new break-in oil, but it is still clear in color so far.
I sure am loving this AV compressor. It is fast to fill and quiet IMO. I moved it to a permanent spot on top of a sturdy table and it is much quieter than when I ran it the first time on top of the shipping box.
I am loving the FREEDOM to fill on my schedule the most!!!

The only thing I don't like about my new AV compressor is the smell of the air in the bottle (smells of Coltri CE 750 Synthetic compressor oil). I will be adding additional filtration to eliminate this issue as I have been using dry Nitrogen for the last 2 years which of course has no odor at all.

Perhaps an air freshener at the end of you barrel call it a smelly air controller or SAC for short ?

I read somewhere that the smell is just the new gaskets breaking in. The smell did seem to be less on my second fill.

After 5 fills I still get that smell coming out of my 74 CF bottle. Can't say it was ever/is offensive. Just kinda reminds me I have a lot of air to use right here at home. Smile. Brian
