white90 Posted October 14, 2006 Author Share Posted October 14, 2006 The ones that have been harsh enviroment tested are of interest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D9OSV Posted October 14, 2006 Share Posted October 14, 2006 I missed that bit first time......... You see the vid with it working under water ..????? And the unit that had sent days under salt water fully submerged, and still worked afterwards.... Pretty good advertising piece, i've got to say... Very impressed Jim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turbocharger Posted October 14, 2006 Share Posted October 14, 2006 Any idea on CFM and max pressure for the unit? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reads90 Posted October 15, 2006 Share Posted October 15, 2006 Hardley new Tony These were the ones i posted on here a year ago tony (well when we were on LRE beofre this one was around). Had a pic of one working under water. Only a pic as i did not have a camcorder with me. Was at the Sydney off road show. They are smaller and cheaper than the ones you use. Sending one to Julian , but can't be used for pumping up your tyres. And you say Australia is not a head of the uk in the off road world Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

white90 Posted October 15, 2006 Author Share Posted October 15, 2006 Less than half the price over here! http://www.devon4x4.com/shop.php?mode=prod...w&product=1 Does say no good for tyres but then again the orig one isn't much better. If/When mine dies I'll opt for one of these I think. and get one sent over too to save the exorbitant charges for one over here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LR90 Posted October 16, 2006 Share Posted October 16, 2006 The only comment I would make with the limited use of mine is the reservoir is very small, maybe enough for a couple of diff lock actuations before the compressor kicks in again. OK, refills pretty darn quick being so small but did wonder if there may be some sittuations when you might wish to repeatedly and rapidly be locking/unlocking the diff and find the compressor can't keep up. As I say, not bothered me yet but I've not had as much practice with the locker as others on here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
