I bought the version just before the Evo I believe and fitted the Dry Pack Pro ...which does slow fill-time a little and also extends pressurising times. But worth it I feel for cleaner air. Mine doesn't have that blow off valve or the manometer but has the 310 bar higher limit etc. Hill have been EXCELLENT in providing me with any information on queries I had....temp. cut-offs changing with bar pressure etc. and just confirmed with their expertise that this is a brilliant piece of kit. I worried when I bought it that I was spending as much as a nice pcp on it, but it has proved it's worth over and over!! Great British Company!!! Well done all at Hill. 🙂

Excellent content, and well done for bringing quality British manufacturing to the forefront.

I too have seen first hand how the Hill EC-3000 compressor is made, everything is made/built in house or from local companies, the evo is next level. The team are very proud of what they produce, I for one can confirm that there is NOTHING on this compressor is from China.

Bought the Hill ec 3000 evo last week with the pro pac after weeks of reserch ..fills my Hw 100 and AGT Vulcan 3 in no time ..cracking compressor and the sales team are absolutely brilliant and really helpful...well done Hills great to see the UK doing it properly .

I have the one before this evo and all i can say is wow what a bit of kit. I have had other compressors in the past and nothing has come close to how well this is made and performs. Ok it is more expensive than a lot of them but that is for a very good reason. There better made and last longer without any issues and do the job that they were built to do and does it clean and efficiently so in my eyes well worth the money. Had mine over a year now and no issues what so ever. So thank you Hills for such an awesome bit of kit. Best of British.👍👍Great review and thank you for all the great content you provide us with each week. Keep up the awesome work.👍👍

Best compressor I've ever brought

[nickl]

Great to see something of quality being made in the UK, hope Hills go from strength to strength

I spent weeks considering so many compressors, I primarily need to feed my Uragan 2 with its large 500cc cylinder and occasionally keep a 3 Litre scuba bottle topped up. I don't need a compressor in the field. Your review helped me to finally make my mind up. I just bought the new Hill's EVO-310 with the air cleaner at the best price available at this time.

Another great and honest review. I’ve already got and love the simplicity of my current compressor but I wouldn’t rule out the EVO if or when I need a replacement. Impersonally think it’s reasonably priced considering the build and quality control that each unit goes through. Keep up the good work Andy, your unbiased reviews not doubt have saved a lot of us shooters from buying substandard kit.

I own an EC-3000 and i am very happy with mine.

15:28 I love how it's not bouncing around the desk like most other compressors I've seen 😂

As well as the EC3000 I have bought a Gamo gx40 and BSA r12 after watching your reviews. Word of caution! Bought the Gamo from Vector air, had one or two minor issues but the customer service was above and beyond. Sent me what I needed to do the repairs myself, can't recommend them highly enough. Unfortunately, my R12 had to be bought from elsewhere because of availability issues. RANGE AND COUNTRY. I had a seal fail and replaced it, easy job but still had a small leak which I have since fixed. I reached out to RANGE AND COUNTRY and their attitude was TOUGH LUCK. The warranty was invalidated and they refused point blank to give me even the most basic help. I know that Vector Air wouldn't have treated me so poorly. Lesson Learned, you put your reputation on the line by associating yourself with Vector Air and they don't let you or their customers down.

My only compliant, Is this unit is sold Mainly for PCP air guns. So the water trap should be included in the price. I mean who is going to buy it and use it as it is ???.

[brorjordas]

Awesome!
I'd definitely would want one of these. Oughta be pretty well known by now to be one of the absolute best compressors out there - or at least in my opinion.
All Brithish design and manufacturing is a big thing in my books (even though I being from Finland).. *IF* I had the money, I'd drive a Bentley Continental GT (though I think they nowadays being owned by the bstrds from VW🙄) ... when not being at home filling my PCP with the Hill compressor..😁

[Beesa]

I'm going to buy one as soon as I can, looks to be a brilliant bit of kit.

[stevenwyatt]

What a great overview of Hills and clearly they stand by their quality and operation. You can see why they are reputed to be among the best money can buy. Just wish I could afford one 🙂. Given the way that dive cylinder refill costs (and servicing) aren't getting any cheaper, I wonder how far into the future you would need to go before you break-even considering tank costs, servicing, cost of getting it to the dive shop and the cost of each refill itself.

[dwaring]

I love the recipes and the speed is perfect. The music choice is very relaxing and I can see how it could put some to sleep. Lol 😆 🤣

I'm watching from Florida, USA

[MrAshtute]

Yes well done to Hill because i think many firms would give you a two word answer with the 2nd word being off.

[nathanstupple]

It is great to see something being produced in Britain the quality is very high
Great job cheers

[Steve-Cross]

Looks like a quality piece of kit. Thanks for the review. 😊
