I have one of the Chinese 300 BAR water cooled contraptions that is one of the scariest things to operate that I own, takes ice baths, oil changes, filters to fill my two SCBA Scott tanks and small Air Venturi tank.    Its not worth it to just fill up a gun.   With the three tanks I cascade a fill and it makes for a fun day of shooting.    

What are you all using?    I'm looking at the Air Venturi RovAir 4500.

Same one I’m looking at.  Has good reviews.

I have a rovair 4500.  It's not really made to fill scba tanks, but I do use to to top up mine.  I run it ten minutes, let it cool ten when I'm able to baby sit it in the garage.  I mainly fill my Benjamin Cayden to 3000 from the 4500psi tank and my FX Impact to 3600 direct from the compressor.
It works great for direct filling the guns though.

I have the Air Venturi compressor. It is the same as the one in the link below, but wasn't called the Krypton when I purchased mine.

GX has a variety of options. Pretty good reputation.

I have a E-L2. I haven't filled from a tank for a couple of years. Pick how much you want to spend based on if you want to fill big or small tanks, or just guns.

I like the form factor so much I bought a second one just  in case the first one dies. Been a very reliable option for me. Couple hundred shots a day, most days of the week during the summer... 30ish shots a fill.

I bought one of these and so far so good. Hopefully it lasts a while.
