Had mine for just over 12 months now and its brilliant. Quickly fills up my 3 PCP's no problem. Love it.

Hello,
I have had this device for 7 months, I use it several times a week, to inflate to 230, 250 and 300 bars according to my PCP ...
No problem, silent and very easy to use, you plug into the mains or in the trunk of the car and wait for the automatic shutdown, what a pleasure !!! No more inflation with the hand pump !!

[jimkurk]

Does this compressor have inside filter? So i don’t need one in the hose

[joekelly]

[callumpalmer]

Hi what's the name of the adapter your brought to connect the filler probe? Thanks

[stuartosborne]

I have a BSA r10 and also the new the past 6 months I also purchased this compressor...its worked perfectly for all this time, albeit only every couple of weeks....today, however, there is an air leak from where the air tube meets the filter probe....ive contact the shop I bought it from but with no reply is it so difficult to contact BSA?....I cannot find a phone number or email address for the company ..I expected better service from them....hopefully they'll be at the Yorkshire Shooting Show in a couple of I can let them know my problem....

For the less civilized people like myself, I’m glad they include battery clamps.

Thanks, I noticed yours do not have an external power supply. All the cs3 compressors I see here in America has the power supply. I assume that's because of the 110v vs 220v?

[yannickjanssen]

Wont these push a lot of moisture in my 13ci hpa tanks?? No molecular sueve or adequate filters on this so I'm wondering if its worth getting to fill my airsoft tanks with this?

[steveashton]

I've had mine since Nov 2021, it's failed inthat the circlip on the conrod has broken and the pressure won't go above 100bar and I cannot find any leaks.

[rodjava]

Will this compressor fill SCBA tanks? Thanks for posting your review.

[HILUXCHAINSAW]

Wow, you can get a lot of bottle fills for that.

My bsa compressor won't blow up a balloon it runs and sounds ok and it's hardly been used rubbish

[lomp]

This is a chinese made compressor that many companies like BSA are putting their names on.

[PeakyBlinder]

This is a CS pump,
Are you lot that blind ?

[melvyncotton]

Great compressor until you need spares. Then that's the problem even BSA don't know ware to get them from.
