Hello to all. I just started diving again after a 30 year layoff. I still have (but don't use) my original Healthways Scubastar TD reg and Voit Duck Feet fins. I now dive in mostly shallow water with just a 14 cf 2000 psi pony tank on a pony pack. I use an spg but no octo as a shallow CESA is no real problem with a ten minute dive. I have been renting a 130 cf 3500 psi tank and using a double yoke hose assembly to fill my tanks. I would like to buy a Cornealus 130R1500 or similar compressor to fill my tanks at home or on the road. With this application the small the better, 2000 psi is fine and 110 volt electricity is necessary. Is there anyone out there who can point me in the right direction or help me out? Tim

Welcome to the group. I don't have any advise on compressors, but there are several people here who do have some, so stay tuned. In the meantime, feel free to explore the archieves here, and enjoy the vintage diving.

Welcome Tim. I have a small Cornelius (.6 cfm) but it has issues, and once they are fixed (if that's even possible) I'm still not sure I would want to sell it, -it's just too cute. Be patient and one will come along. Good luck in your search, and enjoy participating in the discussions here. There is a lot of good information.

Welcome Tim aka "tcrbaker"! You have definitely come to the right place for Vintage Diving. Captain is an expert on compressors. I would suggest starting a new thread in the General Discussion section and ask your question again there. It's great that you have become a part of this community. I think you'll find that the members are friendly, extremely helpful and very knowledgeable. Welcome aboard and remember to stay connected and dive often! Regards, JES
