Q:

How many fills from a SCBA 66cf 4500 tank?

I bought 2 SCBA 66cf/4500 tanks from some guy on Craigslist. They also came with a survivair harness, Reg, hose and a mask. I was a little leery because the guy lived a couple states away but for $300 shipped, I was willing to take a gamble. Looks like it paid off!!! They are Luxfer tanks and were mfg 11-09. Now I need is to purchase the hardware to put them to use.

Does anyone know how many times you can fill an AF Tank from one of these?

I own a shoebox and a SCBA whip to foster (paintball) bought from Joe Brancato.

Before I had a SCUBA and had it filled at a dive shop for 6$

I have a 66 cu ft SCBA too…..LOVE IT !!! I fill to 2750 psi and re-fill at 2000 psi , that’s where gun performs it’s best.. Give me TWENTY-NINE re-fills… Like I said….LOVE IT !!

That sounds sweet… at that rate, I may just liquidate one of these tanks because I NEVER do that much shooting and I can get it filled within 5 minutes of my house.

How do you get your tanks filled? do you have an adapter that goes from 1/8 nipple to SCBA so you can fill it at a paintball shop, or do you get yours filled at a firehouse?

Using some rough guesses about the required parameters, I came up with 18 refills. You of course will enter the specific data that will give you the answer you are looking for. Good luck! 😀
