      Hi Tony , thx for the support 🙏🏻
      One quick tip and I don’t think I covered it in the video and it’s also not in the manual.
      When filling a bottle that still has some air left in it for instance 150bar
      Start the compressor with the bottle valve closed until the compressor build the pressure up to 150 and then slowly open the bottle valve.
      I don’t know if it hurts the compressor doing it differently , but someone told me to do it that way and it makes sense not to push a blast off air in the other direction 😉

      @@Airbuks Hi Airbus, Thank you for that tip. I’ve already done it following your instructions on the video and all seems well. My brand new compressor didn’t even come with full instructions just an A5 size quick reference guide. I had to Google the main instructions which is 9 pages long. Like what you mentioned on the reply, you would think they would add that to their instructions. Thank god for your video otherwise I would have probably blown the back of my house up LOL👍🏼

    A very good comprehensive guide on how to use the ec3000. Wish the video was available when i first used mine. Not many show how to fill a tank and some reviewer's even recomend you do not. Have spoken to the engineer at hill's on this matter and he assures me that it's fine to do so. Have had no prob's with mine and am very pleased with my purchase. Great vid, and thank's!!

    Very cool! I’ve had my EC-3000 for little over a year. Just changed the crank oil. 15 hours of use still running great. I’ve found the gauge on mine is about 10bar lower compared to my wika and sekhmet gauges, so I fill to 260 on my 250bar bottles. I’ve had days where I fill, shoot, fill for hours. Takes a lickin and keeps on tickin

    @The-Jokes-on-You 3 года назад +6

    I got one of the first models, Hill had a recall on them. Unfortunately for me it had to go across the pond (from U.S.A. to the U.K.) they were pretty quick to get me a replacement however the replacement was a refurbished model with obvious wear from whomever had it before me. I ended up having an issue several months later with the unit not being able to build pressure, I sent it back to air venturi in the u.s.a for warranty again. The issue got fixed (bad valve is my guess) but communication as to what they fixed was terrible & the crank oil wasn't emptied before shipping back to me so it was a mess when I got it back. Speaking of crank oil is difficult to get where I'm at. Decent compressor but I feel Hill could have replaced my new compressor with a new compressor, not a refurbished one. Not sure I'd buy another one due to the experience I had.

  • @Sc0ooter

    Nice review 👍, I should add that you must open the bleed valve for a second or two every few minutes while filling your bottle, since it's doesn't seem to have auto purge.

    Pro tip...
    Put your bottle in a cage or reinforced sleeve (while filling) to avoid the devastation caused when a high pressure air tank fails. Even tanks that have passed testing can fail so do yourself a favor and get in the habit of filling bottles in a protected enviornment

I have 2 “Pony” bottles a 68 Cu in and a 88-100 CI in and 2 larger tanks, a 3 ltr and a 6.8 ltr all carbon fiber tanks. To top them off from 3000-4500 psi it takes currently about 15-20 minutes max.

    I am surprised more people don't just get 6000PSI nitrogen tanks for their 4500psi tank fills. It's what I do. Maintaining and hoping for dry air out of a compressor, and paying for one, can hardly be justified over just getting an industrial air source.

    Wow! This compressor seems like a winner! It's the most intuitive and easy to use unit I've come across. Does this unit have an air filter to clean the air before it goes into the cylinders? How long have you had your compressor now? So far still performing well for you? Saw another video where they were recommending glueing the motor shaft to the pump head with LocTite and activator to "quiet" the operation. Have you heard strange noises coming from your unit? Thanks for posting.

      Hey Marc , inderdaad ik heb er een extra filter tussen gestoken omdat ik gemerkt heb dat er op warme dagen met hoge luchtvochtigheid toch redelijk wat vocht uit de eerste filter kwam na het vullen van een 3L fles ( 150-300 bar ) . Ik weet niet of het echt nodig is maar doe het toch voor alle zekerheid aangezien vocht en een pcp niet echt samen gaan 😉 .
      De filter heb ik zelf gekregen van een kennis maar je kan er veel vinden op het net . Je moet gewoon zorgen dat je er eentje koopt die 300bar druk aankan .
      Beide olies worden idd bijgeleverd

      I can get about 3 top offs from 110 to 250bar then every fill gets about 15-20 bar les every time . If you shoot a normal weight pellet and have a efficient gun , it’s more then enough for a afternoon of fun 👍🏻

    I was curious if you set it to PSI what the max allowable fill pressure is? If it goes to 4400 then you could squeeze a few more bar out of it. It looks like from the new manual on their website the new firmware is allowing 310bar/4500psi fills. However, I don’t think the firmware is field upgradable on the older units.

      I can recommend hooking up the dry air filter from Air Venturi for the compressor's incoming air (you can also make this yourself for 1/3rd the price with pieces from Amazon as the AV filter is a bit expensive altho worth it) PLUS a 8mm fast connector with cotton tampon style filter in between the compressor and your rifle. In combination with the Hill built-in filter this gives you a 3 guard moisture blocking system and dry air is guaranteed even on very humid days. This system doesn't slow down the charge time either.

      @@FireTheHoker the bottles you can swap all the time I do this aswel .
      I don’t see the need to ask them if you can fill a 12L bottle as they state in the manual max 7L 🤔

    The main problem is too noisy, it's like rice mill, i wander why air compressor can't be made with less noise in this technolgy world, the noise is the problem

    I don't mind the hand pump. Good exercise. But a big bottle would be to much for a hand pump. This airgun love is expensive to get started in. First you buy a cheaper PCP and a hand pump. Then you buy a twelve hundred dollar pcp. Then you need a electric pump. Then you need a portable filling tank. It ain't cheap. Unless you stick with a break barrel. And they pretty much suck by the end of the day. Cocking all the time.

      @@Airbuks I gotta say...their is something special about a airgun that has that accuracy at that range. It's more rewarding than a powder burner for some reason. Of course not as powerful but I think they all are pretty amazing. Lewis and clark started it.. 😆
