| LMAO! *Drools* Would be awesome. I suppose you could open up your natural gas line. (LPG) Hardly 3000psi though. Hey... wait a second... Couldn't you fill containers like that? Quite cheap I would imagine. |

LOL... Well, if you look at the south side of the street in the link.... THere's about 80,000 pounds of air storage there.
So what would you guys do if I also mentioned that we have both liquid oxygen and liquid nitrogen capabilities? |

probably kidnap you and bargain your life for the entire research facilities...
...On a good day...
You are very lucky that I just finished with all of Chemistry for the year, otherwise I would probably do something involving a cheese grater... You don't want to know...
Or better yet, hose you down in liquid oxygen! |

We now know their location!
Lets go down there and steal one of the pumps at night....
Replace it with an air compressor so they dont notice.... |

No need to compensate see ;p
But seriously, for chamber volumes bigger than a couple of cubic inches, a shock pump gets very dreary. |

...or you can build a fridge compressor to get much more than 300 psi
the only drawback is that it requires electricity |

Do fridge compressors run on "high" voltage from the power outlet? Or is there a transformer between?
If it uses 12 or 24 volt you could also run it from a car battery in the outdoor. |

| AFAIK fridge compressors run on 220V or 110V (depending where you live) |

Well the pump arrived, it's great. Get's to 260psi easily enough.
The only thing that bothers me is that the pump guage is way off. Like if I pump till the pump guage says 260psi, the cannon guage will only say about 220psi.
I've tried several guages, on several cannons and I get the same result.
Any logical explanation i'm missing out on? |

They are cheating you out of you money? Sounds logical enough to me...
send it back and demand that they pay the postage for deliberately falsely advertising. |
