You've already dipped your toes in hybrid lake, I think for you HPA is a backwards stepped :roll:

... unless you want the pump for a 200x hybrid :shock:

I need it to fill an air tank at 20 or 30 bar to try in the future to replace the manual air pump, enough to make about 20 or 30 shots, in these small hybrids that I am working. Until now I only have my 25-liter air compressor, which gives about 120 psi. Those that I have built, with lever, have little flow to fill tanks, only serve to fill the small combustion chambers of these hybrids that do not exceed 50 ml.
At present, filling a small carafe of the MAPP gas type for welding, at 15 bar, is problematic for me ...

One thing you might want to look into is refrigerator compressors: http://www.instructables.com/id/How-to- ... silent-ai/

It's a cheap way to reach higher pressures without the effort of manual pumping.

It is an option too. Just and by chance, I have an old refrigerator that works perfectly. We stopped using it because the sheet and the door were not in condition. I'll see to make something like instructables. :) I did not consider it before because I didn't know I could get that pressure.

The instructable is the work of one of our members. I wonder what he's up to these days.

It's a very good tutorial, right now I'm watching and learning. Each word, one's action, modifies "the other", for good in this case, be present or not present. This seems interesting to me in life in general. Publish it ALL, without reservations and for everyone.

Chrono test @150 psi with 0.12g = 860fps :D

So not a great deal more than the pistol which only has a 1/8" QEV, and this has a 3/8" QEV with same barrel.

860 fps is more than enough to play and an important speed.

More flow is not going to do much in this case, especially with a light projectile that has already left the barrel by the time the valve is full open. More pressure, on the other hand...

Not the case with the above, you can see the shattered BB fragments pouring down from behind the tin...

Got to set up the red dot, did a target test at 9m, 20 shots, 0.25g @150psi, no hop up, the odd flyer but not too bad. :shock:

That's better than most commercially available airsoft pistols!
