I was just thinking about my summer at my friends field (1 speedball and some woods) about filling tanks and i thought why can't the tanks fill themselves! you would only need one tank then and it would have a built in compressor mini of course! it would cost around 260.00 but it would last along time. let me know wad ya thinke.lol

so ur saying add a "mini" air compressor 2 an hpa tank? the prob is that an air compressor (speciallly a mini one) cant fill to a high enough psi for the tanks (unless u can find an air compressor that fills at least up to 3500 psi) nice try though

Lets see if I can remember all the reasons we figured out why this wouldnt work the last time a thread like this came up. 1. A small enough compressor wouldnt have enough psi |

Well, for one thing, the big air compressors like at SEARs only put about 300PSI TOPS! And you want a MINI one! That's crazy!

Yeah, this idea has been thrown around "a few" times before. It won't work.

Actually this is a pretty bad idea. Until they can create a powerful enough, small enough compressor system, it will not happen. High pressure storage tanks are the most efficient use of air power to weight right now.

Toby15custom, you handle criticism/humor at your own expense very well. You demonstrated maturity by just joining in the fun as opposed to throwing a screaming, balled-up-fists, jumping up and down, tantrum flamefest like so many others do. Good job!

^Yep. It was a good idea, but it wasn't thought out long
enough. I don't blame you for that though. It's a
complicated subject.
