My first Yong heng is still going strong, bought it in early 2019, all i fill is guns no bottles yet, still hits 300 bar in just a few minutes, i also have a brand new one sitting in reserve that is setup and ready, i used it for a month or two just to make sure nothing was wrong before warranty went past, great little machines!

My Yong Heng is STILL running like a champ. I never over run it, I run it for 10-15 mins at most. I change the oil every two or three uses because it's easy to do and cheap. A gallon of AW-46 is $15 bucks. I really like your car analogy of taking it out to it's max everyday and see how long it lasts.

British viewer here. We're limited to 12ft/pounds muzzle energy unless the gun is on FAC (firearm certificate) so most PSP air rifles fill to between 2,800 and 3,300 psi, and will not overtax a compressor like this if you're just using it to fill the reservoir. Anyway, I bought one because that's all I use it for. It didn't cost a whole lot more than a good quality hand pump and around the same as a useful sized dive bottle, but means I don't have to drive to a scuba shop, which would be a PITA because there isn't one local to me. I figured that if I take care of it, it's probably cheaper in the long run than a scuba tank and saves me pumping the gun by hand. If it *does* break spares are cheap and plentiful and (having a technical background) I can probably fix it. Sure, it's a cheap Chinese compressor so I don't expect it to last forever, but if I get 5 years worth of fills from it, it will have saved me some money and a lot of effort. Love your common sense approach to airgun shooting. Keep up the good work ! 😄

Sorry to hear your compressor died . I did loo at this compressor when they first came out But decided to go with the more mobile won that you can charge from your car and at home. trying to get bottles filled to 4500 psi in the UK is very hard to get as not many rifles here run at that pressure . i do have one rifle that runs at 4500 psi and i only have to top it up and not fill it from empty. I must say i am still with you on the P15 as my .177 Cal shoots very very well i just made a sound mod for t and it is super quite and i still love it and touch wood i have not had any problems at all. So i also say you dont have to spend the earth to shoot and shoot well with rifles that dont cost a lot and if you do your research 👍👍👍

I got super lucky recently. A gun was selling a bottle for 300 for a 6.8l. if any of my chief brother--and are out there looking for their first bottle I think he's trying to buy some loyalty and when I say 300 I mean 300 I didn't even get charge tax for some reason. After that spending the same on a compressor setup just is a no-brainer. Minnesota's pretty barren from what I can find.

These are great machines for the price. But being built to this price, they are constantly attempting thermal self destructtion. ;) Without cooling the air would get ~700°C in the high pressure side. This is why the O-Rings burn up there! Of course there is the water jacket, but it only can do so much.

But be sure to watch all my videos on the care of them and you should be ok. Best of luck.

I can't find anything for them not a email or phone number !! Any help would be greatly appreciated !!

Every last airgun and every last compressor is going to fail at some point. If a person isn't willing to accept that, they should probably avoid airgunning. Those YH compressors are very good and an exceptional value. AND have parts available for repair / replacement. I won't buy any gun or compressor I can't readily get parts for.

It looks like a nice machine. However my concerns is that it is air cooled, cost almost twice as much and is not proven platform like the Yong Heng. Thank.

I use the cheapest cooling fluid i could find, just to prevent corrosion. Added a quality check valve at the pressure side, and run it using a programmable timer via a relay circuit. At 250bar instead of the rated 300bar. p.s: after filling, i let the cylinder rest upside down for a wile, and blow the possible oil/water residue out, before filling my rifle. All dry so far, but better safe than sorrow.
