I can fill my P-Rod by hand pump no problem😎. I also have an original Talon SS with 2 tanks to fill, and they're a real workout to refill to 200bar, especially after 100+shots per tank😕.The Nomad II seems to be a complete deal, with multiple voltage capabilities, air filter, and ease of use. I've not used my Talon SS for awhile due to the hassle of filling tanks. I grab for other airguns, or firearms🔫 for range time. The Nomad II will change that.....😸
followed the link to Pyramyd Air..... that little HPA compressor is much more affordable than i thought it was going to be! i wasn't really in the market for a compressor, but maybe soon i'll have to get me one of those! thanks Tyler
Just got mine please check plastic pipe going to where you put silicone oil is connected as mine was not so silicone oil was going nowhere,easy enough to connect back up,just putting it out there.
Thanks for covering the volume issue. I'm a transfer from big bottles(SCBA/SCUBA) shooter. I was debating whether to purchase portable unit or it's big brother. This verified that I'd be better off with the big floor model.
You guys need to include a FULL bottle of silicone oil with this. Also, is there any indication where you have to put in silicone oil for the very first use?
Mine should be here in a couple hours or so, along with the Hatsan Bull Boss, I have the mk4 Hill pump which is great on my Flashpup going from 100bar to 200 bar, I'm disabled an don't go lower than 100 bar. Great review Tyler
Why don't you carry the hatsan spark compressors or the 12 volt power supply for them ??? You carry the hot sun guns why not two compressors and other pieces
I ordered one and have been using it for the last week! I’ve been waiting for them to be in stock for a year. Glad it’s finally here! I love it haven’t used my Hill MK4 pump since! Works as advertised. There are haters saying that these electronic compressors put moisturize in your airgun and will cause damage to them. Question does Pyramid Air or Air Venturi have a opposing response to that statement? They say that the moisture removal system on units like these are inadequate. I like my Nomad II and hope this isn’t true.
Glad you like it! We were eagerly awaiting their arrival as well. With regards to moisture getting into your gun, it's certainly possible. Not nearly as likely as when using a hand pump, but the possibility is there. I've tested both the first gen Nomad and the Nomad 2 and outside of the one time we tried to fill a 90 cu in tank with the Nomad 1(which is NOT recommended), I've never seen an alarming amount of moisture come through the unit. There's a reason why it is only recommended for filling in short stretches. Bear in mind, you can always add additional filter elements on the hose, though it will increase the fill times. So far though, I've not seen any amount of moisture that has given cause for concern come through or be bled out of the Nomad 2 used in this video. While this isn't an official statement, just my two cents, I hope it helps. Change out the filters at the recommended intervals and you should be good to go.
Tyler Patner Thanks Tyler! Does Pyramid sell the extra filters for the Nomad 2? So after the extras that come with the unit are used, folks can buy more?
Have a question just bought the new Nomad live in sydney,my MaxAir 25 Cal,plus FX 22 Monsoon it says they can be filled to 250 Bars that is what the shop has told me Hermans Gun Shop of course im unable to fill to that pressure it only fills to 160 or 170 on both PCP why is this even when i use the scuba tank the same what else can be done.
There are a lot of "I guess" and "I suppose" in here. "Burst disc setting is 5,000 psi I guess" Find out! You don't come across as an expert who should be reviewing the product if you don't know these details. 7:22 - It would be better NOT to use an extension cord if possible. There will be a voltage drop and the motor will need to work harder and run hotter when using an extension cord. If on IS used, use a heavier gauge or shorter one. Looks like a nice little compressor with some useful safety features.
Not enough amperage through your cigarette lighter 12v. Plus do yourself a favor and run the engine. If you're going to make using a battery the go to option maybe consider a deep cycle marine battery.
Going on 2 weeks searching to purchase one of these or even a hill hand pump, can't find one anywhere, I can't understand why with all the technology here in America we can't produce a high quality PCP compressor or even a robust high quality hand pump. Anyone has one for sale? Thanks guys
They Yonh Heng requires a 5 gallon bucket of cold water, a pond pump, two rubber hoses from the bucket for cooling, etc. It is a Frankenstein of a compressor. It draws 20 amps, can't be run from car battery, drinks oil (royal purple is expensive, and is ugly. The Nomad is portable, has carry case, fan cooled (no water to get in your gun), and is self contained. How is the Yong Heng a better setup??
Been using mine for a couple of years now with two Benjamin PCP rifles, and it works great. I recently purchased a 10 meter competition air pistol and air rifle, both with removable PCP cylinders and both with 200 bar capacity. I have the appropriate adapters, but for some reason, the Nomad just gets to a few hundred PSI and never goes any higher. Using the same adapters with a manual pump, I'm able to pump up the cylinders to 200 bar. So it's not the adapters. Any idea why I can't get it to work with the removable cylinders?
Can you get an adapter to keep it plugged in the 12 volt socket so you can run it in the air conditioning so you don't get any moisture I'm in Florida where it's always humid
Do you need to add any silicone oil into the compressor , never used, brand new out of the box? What numbers should be showing on the load meter that you might want to add 2 or 3 drops of silicone oil so the compressor stays lubricated before the load meter reads 29 and shuts off. The manual says add 2 to 3 drops after 5 fills or after 1.5 hours running time.
Looks pretty good but what's the average life expectancy on a compressor this small before things break or it dies? If you have a higher powered rifle that only gets 30/40 shots per fill and shoot a lot, you're gonna run this compressor ragged all day long, maybe 4/5 days a week. It's it made for that kind of use?
For the short run times that the unit is meant to be used for, it works just fine. Even when running the unit for longer times (10-15 minutes) the air being blown out of the unit isn't even warm most of the time.
I am asking anyone this question, If you have an Umarex Legends MP40 Semi/Full auto BB Submachine Gun? and if you think it is possible to build a system that would use either air handpumps, HPA tanks, and PCP for the legends MP40 to be fitted with a regulator, fitting, and air hose to go where the clips piercing plug, screw that goes into the Legends MP40's clip...To use compressed air instead of the CO2 air. ??? So as to not have to deal with cold air, freeze up's with CO2.
I know there are several portable compressors out there ,but could you do review on the crosman traveler and give a us a rating on the best one in your opinion, thku ?
$649.00 ?? Depends on you. Bought Yong heng. Do what I want. Fill big scuba or direct to gun. Most filling to gun. $235.00 free shipping. We will see. Won't use for a few months. To cold in mi.
Yeah, too cold to fill a ("cooling system") bucket of water and have it not freeze. I love it when my compressors have hoses dangling off of them, are difficult to set up and are required to refill the oil reservoir frequently with hydraulic oil. Does it run 110v, 220v, car battery? Guess not. You get what you pay for.
I received the overpriced $700 compressor and the first thing i noticed is the Made in China label, i didn't even bother opening the box, sent it back within two days for a full refund and bought an 80 cu ft Scuba tank that with my limited shooting schedule and perhaps 20 shots per day may require a trip to a local scuba shop maybe twice a year.. I no longer buy Chinese junk..
@@nico5735 The question is: what's best for the rifle and the answer to that is clean and dry air, Scuba shops have top grade equipmennt and you can be assured that they will provide you with clean, dry air. Considering the fact that without a tank you woud be running the compressor every 5 shots in an unclean abd humid atmosphere it just makes more sense to me to have your air stored so no natter where you go your shots will be consistent and your rifle will have fewer if any. The tank on my rifke is 490cc but the scuba tank holds 80 cu ft if air, that equates to a whole bunch of refills and since i bough the scuba tank for $175 i could buy two more and have them filled for $8 apiece and i still spend less than i woud for a pcp compressor that will inevitably break down because of heat
Bs on the availability of the oil… in a city with a population of over 300,000, it was NOWHERE to be found. Not at Lowe’s, Ace, Western Auto, Walmart, O’Reilly’s, Auto Zone… Just include the damn oil!
It cost too much money not to be able to fill bottles that's the whole purpose of having machine like that is to fill bottles you can keep your bottles filled and take them with you and leave that at home what a waste of money
That's really too bad that machine is useless if you cannot fill a tank with it that would be the only reason why I would want to buy it would be to refill my tank that I use on my guns that stupid for them to build a machine like that they cannot fill a tank what a waste of time and a waste of money
Finally, someone to give an honest review of this air compressor that is under $1,000. Thanks for the great review, Tyler.

The power connection is a simple kettle/PC lead, so replacements won't be a problem.

Why didn't they just use a cig lighter adapter instead of the battery clamps? Much more convenient and eliminates the chance of mistakes.
Need to hook it up direct to the battery. There will likely be fuses blown if you try to run it through the cig lighter
@tylor panther good point.

The Yong Heng is a better set up for half the price. $300 for the compressor and $100 for a good water oil filer.

@@scratchcoobster5981 the Yong Heng is disposable, not taking up space as the Nomad would.

No, typically right out of the box, none is needed for a few fills. If your load gauge gets into the 25 range I would definitely lube at that point.
@@tylerpatner6591 Thank You!!, that really helps me a lot , and is very much appreciated !!

Would I be able to fill a 4500 PSI Big Bore? Or is that too much strain for consistent fills on big bore airguns.
Cooling System is the most important part of of a high pressure compressor, that fan look insufficient for the purpose.
For the short run times that the unit is meant to be used for, it works just fine. Even when running the unit for longer times (10-15 minutes) the air being blown out of the unit isn't even warm most of the time.
What is max tank size? How about the nomad 2.
Great video 👍
So, could you fill a small bottle? Say 3 Litres?
Can u fill the small portable tanks? Like the small Benjamin one.
Available in Belgium ? Thanks and very good video ! 👍🤝🍻😉
Sad it doesn’t come with oil !
I have 68ci 4500 hpa tank for my hpa airsoft gun. Would this be good for filling up airsoft tanks?
Sure, it would work for such smaller tanks, although manufacturer does not recommend using it for larger tanks.

They will be yes. I believe Highland Outdoors will be distributing them in the UK
If you want a fac rifle from the United States without getting an fac I can help you for a fee

What is the hook up peace used for the air compressor and do u or anyone sell it?
Is this available in Germany?
Will this run on 50Hz mains power?
It's good but too expensive
Its the cheapest you can get with PCP air compressors lol
It's expensive because it's good. Compared to larger compressors at $2,000 - $5,000 it is a bargain.
The beard suits you.
Hi is this available in Australia?
cheers
Are they available in Australia?
Comes with a box and foam? WTF... isn't that the norm bro?

Only 2 FEET disconnect!
The longer the disconnect the harder the compressor works. This means longer fill times and more wear on the compressor.
