Who in BR fills 4500 psi HPA tanks?

ringo-> · Sep 9, 2013

Hi all. New here. Getting a Marauder and am about to order the 4500psi HPA 90ci tank Air Venturi sells for filling.

This: http://www.airventuri.com/s/a/Air_Venturi_Carbon_Fiber_Air_Tank_and_Fill_Station_4500_PSI_90_Cu_In/4708

I was going to go the 80cf scuba tank route till I read about these. Much easier to transport and only slightly more total cost. Problem is who in Baton Rouge can fill these things and fill them to 4500psi to get the benefit of using this one. Thanks for the help.

Oh, sorry, and what is the cost per fill?

ringo->, Most of what you will get around here is 3000psi from local Dive shops. I have 68ci tanks for paintball that hold 4500psi, but only a few fields were able to fill them all the way. Most fields will charge around $5 for air. May want to look at buying a scuba tank and fill adapter for it (see picture). Dive shops usually rent Scuba tanks for around $5.00 over the weekend if you're on budget. I don't know much about the Marauder, but our paintball guns are regulated down to under 400psi and use way less per shot. I'd average 600 shots at 275-280fps before bringing the tank back up to 3000psi. One scuba tank would provide 4+ fills of 3000psi then it would drop down. By end of practice after many top offs from the team there would still be over a 1200psi in the tank. Best of Luck.

If you have the right adapter, your local fire station might be able to fill them.
I got mine filled at the LSU fire training center a couple of times.

Did you ever find a shop that fills to 4500psi?

I am going to get either a 98 cf or 77cf tank soon, first paintball shop I called in Mandeville said no problem, 5 bucks.

Then I would think they have to have places that fill to 4500psi near Baton Rouge. Anyone know?

Did a quick google search, Southland Fire and Safety is listed as a 4500 psi filling station in BR. I looked up the closest dive and paintball shops by my house and started calling. I found that the both can fill and the dive shop can do hydro testing as well, maybe do the same and see if you may get lucky.
