Why The Mini Diving Tank Hand Pump Is a SCAM

Ойын-сауық

They say you easily and effortlessly can fill a scuba diving tank with a hand pump, but how effortless is it actually?
I tested how long it actually takes to fill a scuba tank with a hand pump?

    I'm curious as to what other manual pump designs there are, this seems pretty inefficient but there must be a reason the design didn't change, maybe a geared bycicle would do great, it could adjust to the load and legs are quite good at hard continuous work.

    Fun fact, using a cheaper pump may result in the air hose failing after heavy usage, I had a bubble form in the line and subsequently burst after we had to air up a truck tire in the middle of nowhere. The hose will get very hot to the touch beforehand though, so fair warning.

    Take abroad 😮 are you kidding? There's no reason to take all this crap abroad. Don't forget you also need a mask, fins and a snorkel plus a belt with 5-8 pounds of lead. Also, take a diver down marker buoy so as not to get chopped into pieces by a speed boat. Easier to travel with a diving certificate and enjoy yourself. Source; I'm a professional diver

    I'm guessing the rules that us norms don't know. Like a random dude buying this then diving down 100 meters. Like what precautions are needed when breathing compressed air at depths and how they effect your body? Or not understanding how the reg works? I'm just guessing but bc of this I've signed up to get my cert.

    Seems like the issue is the pump. These are multi-stage pumps, they should have designed the final stage piston/chamber with a diameter of 5.6mm. This would give a reaction (pushback) force of just 50kg when the piston hits 200bar (200kg/cm2 acting on 0.25cm2). Looks like the central final stage piston is too big a diameter. Of course this would need even more pump strokes to fill!
