For years airgunners have used air tanks to fill their favorite PCP airguns. To do so has required a trip to the scuba shop for a refill. That is no longer the case with the new Air Venturi PCP Airgun Compressor. Now you can save a trip and fill up your PCP right in the comfort of your own home.
The AV Air Compressor only requires a standard 110v socket to plug in and you're ready to start filling. You won't have to worry either about the fill amount as this compressor will cover up to 4500 PSI.
Air Venturi 4500 psi Electric Air Compressor Features
Approximate Fill Times
It is recommended that this compressor be used to fill scuba tanks and other types of high volume devices used to charge your airgun. When filling air bottles, do not leave the compressor unattended! Do not use for breathing air!

Worth it!
This is a very well-built compressor. Youā€™re better off making the choice to just purchase this and leave all the headaches behind.
I bought this compressor and a large tank with the very helpful advice from Doug in sales. Well worth the investment.

Great investment
I am very happy with this compressor. It was taking me two hours of drive time to fill my tanks, and I wasn't even getting full fills. This compressor is a game changer. I now get full 4500 psi tank fills, and shoot as much as I want. They should come with a warning label though, as my pellet consumption has skyrocketed. Airgun Depot has me covered there as well though.
ProsQuick, easy fills, and lots more shooting
ConsA bit expensive, but buy once, cry once

Give what you can when others are in need and you have skills and tools to offer most times it never come back to you but sometimes like in my case the best Christmas ever.
Iā€™m semi new to PCP air gunning but this year I helped a friend in need along with my elderly neighbor both with flooring projects. Friend was at the hospital for a month with a premie, neighbor installed 1/3 of his flooring wrong and had to remove and start over wasting hundreds. I couldnā€™t let a friend get home with a newborn to an unfinished home and my defeated neighbor I could relate because Iā€™ve made costly mistakes and just had to pitch in. Surprise they both got home to complete new finished floors and clean houses. Iā€™d never accept a penny from either even if they were insulted by that. They both conspired together to hook me up a week before Christmas with several carbon fiber tanks, ammunition, a new Hatsan Bully 30 cal and boxes of other goodies but best of all this compressor. No more trips to the fire station or hand pumps. Better still my days at the range or in the field arenā€™t limited By lack of air just not enough ammunition.
ProsPackaging was awesome and dent free. Box is tough with rugged carry handles and tightly packed with ridged foam boards. I?ve read the bad reviews and it shouldn?t be put on AGD or A.V. because you?d have to dump this package off a moving truck to damage the contents. That?s all on the shipping company.
Ease of use and essentials video made setting up a breeze. The short time from zero to 4500 to full on 88ci, 75cf and 98cf in the specs are dead on along with top off fill times. Wishing I bought this when it came out. The auto off feature is awesome. I?m never far from filling station at my house but it came in handy once. I?m usually right at my workbench while filling working on filling mags or cleaning barrels or tuning but this feature works if you need a bathroom or fridge break so no worries. 4+hrs of initial run time for my first fills with little or no breaks and a quick oil change, compressor never got near the temperature it said in the manual to shut down and trouble shoot. It was actually 20 degrees cooler than that temperature. Oil was cool enough to dip my hand in during the change. Awesome machine!
ConsFirst I wish this had an hour meter. I?m keeping a log of runtime but what my friends paid for this great gift an hour meter is a short ask.
Second I?m in the construction field and have bought several compressors, generators and other gas operated equipment and never did I have to run to the store to buy my first container of oil. Always less than a quart and an exact measured container of oil came standard in the box with inexpensive equipment to high end. So this was incredibly odd to me.
Not really a complaint but others might find this helpful, I?ve always maintained my equipment, (notice I changed the oil after the first 4hr run) it?s expensive so the better you treat it the longer it lasts. My 3 job site compressors purchased in the mid 90?s lasted decades and are still running today because I do the required maintenance early and always kept them running out of the weather and in as much of a dust free area as possible. I set my new A.V. compressor up in a spare bedroom because my garage and basement are unheated and very dusty. If you are running this inside your house please make sure that you are in a well ventilated room with the door closed on a level floor. Don?t overfill the oil. Put the one third quart in run the 10min dry run check and add oil if necessary (another friend running his newly purchased compressor in basement watched a YouTube video and put a half quart into the machine, needless to say his home stunk for months). I vented my room with a fan pulling air out one window and another fan pulling in through another window because the oils burning off can really permeate the rest of your home/clothes/carpet/furniture and make people very unhappy. No foul odors here! The smell is hard to remove so run with open windows and fans if possible. I filled four tanks and 3 guns after the 10 minute dry run so I was running for about 4+hrs straight.
Other than no hour meter and lack of oil in the box, nothing.
Best UsesFill and shoot often!!!

Working very good
This has been working very well and is easy to fill all the tanks with. The pressure setting on it comes in very handy for what needs to be filled at different pressure settings.
Best UsesRefilling multiple tanks.

Does what it says
Hi everyone, I watched a bunch of videos before I bought this compressor. I remember that none of them showed filling an empty tank. So here's my experience, a 90ci took about 13 minutes. When I put the tank in water it was closer to 10 minutes. I then filled my scuba tank 80cf it was 45 minutes. The smaller tank out of water got seriously warm but not hot. So far I like the unit. I used to use 3000 psi in my blackbird but now with 4500psi it's like a new gun.
ProsEasy to use. I like the digital temperature display.
ConsI haven't used it enough to say anything bad
Best UsesI think this is best for filling larger refill tanks

High Quality Compressor
The Air Venturi arrived with only slight damage to the container. Setup was easy and unit appears to be well made. I have only used it one time to top off AV 74cu ft. tank from 4100 to 4500 psi. This fill only took a matter of minutes and the compressor did it without any problems.
ProsThe obvious benefit to having your own compressor is the ability to keep shooting without the worry of having to either hand pump your gun or run to the dive shop. It will take me some time to realize how convenient this is and to stop being miserly with my air. The only restriction to air gunning now is the number of pellets you possess. I own 3 pcp air rifles, one of which likes a lot of air and likes to be kept between 2000 and 2500 psi. I can now test pellets and bullets as much as I care to.
ConsI could say that the price is a little high and perhaps out of range of some shooters, but I don't own a bass boat or a golf cart, and air gunning is my main vice so I will only offer a mild complaint on the price.

Excellent Value
Unlike some earlier reviews, my compressor arrived in perfect shape and undamaged. Packaging was more than adequate, and amounted to a rigid shipping container that protected the compressor perfectly. The construction is very good and appears to be designed for easy operation. Instructions were well-written and easy to follow, although left several questions unanswered. So far I've used to fill my AirForce Condor and Air Venturi 90 cu tanks, and was surprised how quickly it fills. I thought the price was high until my local scuba shop owner said that such a compressor would cost thousands more. After filling the Condor tank a couple times and trying to fill the Air Venturi tank with a Hill hand pump, buying this compressor was a no-brainer. I especially like the pressure cut-off setting on the meter. It's very easy to use and is very accurate. I don't particularly like that the cooling system switch remains illuminated whenever the AC cord is plugged in, but I expect the power wasted is probably miniscule, and having the switch illuminated makes it less likely one would forget to start the cooling system before the compressor pump. I'd like to see an hour meter and an AC cord storage reel added.
ProsSpeed of operation - fills tanks much faster than I expected.
Quiet operation - considerably quieter than my shop air compressor.
Fit and finish is excellent.
Manual is well-written and easy to follow.
Setup is straightforward and easy.
Pressure cut-off is easy to use and works very accurately.
ConsNo hour meter - would be useful to schedule required maintenance.
Manual doesn't specify to use distilled water in the water reservoir, but a call to the manufacturer revealed it should.
Manual doesn't address whether synthetic oil of the recommended weight can be used, but a call to the manufacturer revealed it could.
No provisions to store the AC power cord - a reel or hooks on the frame would provide a place to store the cord when not in use.
The cooling system switch remains illuminated when the compressor is plugged in to an AC outlet even when not in use.

Looks well built but arrived damaged
I'm guessing these are drop shipped from Air Venturi because mine arrived with some damage and they sure didn't package it very securely. After straightening and welding the frame I found the water tank was cracked too. So I used some JB weld to fix the leak there. You might be asking why didn't I just send this back? Well I had already sold my other pump and waited a long time for this as it was, I didn't want to go through the wait again. With everything repaired I put some oil in and filled the water tank. I was really surprised at how quiet this unit runs, even with the larger compressor motor. I didn't do any complete tank fills, just topped off two different guns and felt the speed was pretty good. The psi cut off setting on the gauge was super easy to set for different guns with no tools.
ProsPressure really easy to change for different guns.
Pretty quiet considering the performance.
nice aesthetics.
Comes with a few different adapters and tools to work on machine
Feels lighter than it actually is (at least to me anyways)
ConsShipping packaging is horrible for such a heavy item. Check for damage.
separate panels have to be removed to check water or oil and are attached with screws instead of 1/4 turn fasteners.

Love it.
It works great and makes me happy not to use my hand pump every time.
ProsRelatively quite, fast, auto shut off, included coolant reservoir and pump. Easily stored and moved on a moving dolly and it fits rolled under a desk/workbench in my man cave!
ConsThe waiting list after ordering was difficult.

Great compressor for the price
It works just as it says. Comes with everything you need to fill tanks and rifles. Some oil spill is completely normal for that kind of high pressure compressor. The only thing not so good was the oil drain. I had to replace the screw for another a little bigger because after some use, it got loose (and it was tight, I'm sure).
ProsReasonable price point. Fast. Auto shut off. Very safe. Compact.
ConsOil drain screw.

AV Compressor works great
Got the box delivered quickly. Was a nice strong box and compressor was wrapped in foam. Very secure. Read the instructions. Filled with compressor oil and distilled water and then let it run with no load for 15 minutes. After this it filled my 90 ci bottle from 2000 psi to 4500 psi in under 15 minutes. Also filled my big 3000 psi scuba tank from 2000 to 3000 psi in 22 minutes. Temperature never went past 68 C. So far no complaints. It also came with extra fittings for filling tanks and extra gaskets for a rebuild.
ProsFast fill time. Easy to operate. Not very loud. About as loud as a pancake compressor. The biggest pro is no more hand pumping!!!
ConsIt is a little heavy but manageable. I may make something with wheels to move it on. The pressure gauge is a little cluttered and hard to read but not terrible.

Works best for =< 40cu tanks
Takes about 10 minutes on my 90ci tank from 0 to 4500psi, about 5 min from 3000 to 4500psi.
it does get very warm in use, but runs pretty quiet, can barely hear it in garage from house.
I calculated that the cost is equal to about 70 trips to my local dive shop, it should pay for itself after about 3 years for my situation.
