MSRP for the new Umarex Oilless ReadyAir Air Gun Compressor is $549.99 US Dollars or £800 plus here in the UK. Any one else feel we are being ripped off ?
We are not called rip off Britain for nothing.
I worked in the motorcycle trade and was appalled to find that triumph bikes where 1/3 cheaper in the USA even after being built here and shipping costs (this was 20 years ago) but it seems like across all products we are on the s*** end of the stick so nothing new.....
No more than usual 😮
$549.99 is £433.04 in UK.
@richardlewis7214 Just over half of what we pay here, it would be great if you know anyone going stateside who could bring one back ..
I would love to see these compressors tested to see how much moisture get through it maybe a case for project Farm ( the best tester of all types of equipment on TH-cam)
The nomad 2 and its BSA close cousin do the same job, are more compact and are cheaper. They both look a lot better. Both also come with a filter with activated charcoal and a dessicant that is easy enough to change when needed. I added a separate pressure gauge with a nice large face for £16 and and a large filter (£22) just to be sure the air going into my guns is clean and dry.
wow ... moist air not good enough for you ?! trying to keep your devices in good shape??? pffftt... nerd. 🤣🤣🤣 😆 jk. thanks for the advice 👍🏻
Hello, thanks for your advice, removing the moisture in the air is a major requirement for me and of course the health of your PCPs , vital 😊
I still use my handpump. Great workout lol. I dont have to fill my tanks that often so i'll stick with that. Its a bit pricey for me.
only thing that concerns me about theses compressors is the moisture content going into the gun did not really see much filtration there , only the charcoal filter . not saying it’s an issue because your not running it for extended periods of time for moisture to build but still i would like to see a little better filtration added in the package
Nice. Was that a Fast Show reference? Jazz. Nice. Anyway. Great review. The activated is intriguing as any engineer or chemist will tell you these remove hydrocarbons and not moisture. So oil etc. If it’s moisture removal then that is usually 3A molecular sieves. See Hill MK5 cartridge etc. Have a good weekend everyone. 👍
Does exactly the same thing as several other AC/DC compressors does, but costs 2-3 times as much. I'm happy with my Yong Heng ~£200 item- adding a little oil once a year is not a problem, and very few people will ever realistically need to refill their airgun while out shooting ( if you're firing 200+ shots per session then you'll likely own a large divers cylinder and get it refilled at a dive shop for a fiver )...
Me too. I've filled several dove bottles with mine.
At that price I would consider the hills unit which can fill guns and tanks?
Decent compressor but £820 ! Ouch ! I will stick to me trusty BSA, Great review Andy.
PSA what is the complete number please
I imagine the Charcoal filter is to remove oil vapour from the pressurized air, it will not remove any moisture you need dessicant etc for that.
How does the Umarex do that?. On ours we have a separate large Dessicant filter assembly, so we have no issues with moisture getting into rifle.
Think we need 2 reviews on weeks like this, so that there’s always a gun review 🤓😆
Hill EC3000 or this Umarex as similarly priced? Hill looks considerably higher quality in my view
I bought the BSA compressor after your review and think that beats this on several levels. All cables and hoses already attached on the BSA plus its about £300 UK less, smaller and in my humble opinion, faster. I love my BSA😊
Thanks for your review. I have to say this is a great product for refilling PCPs without wasting time and effort with hand pumps. I hope it can also land in Italy, it would be really useful for me.
I was close to buying this, but they were sold out at the time.
I didn't want to wait for it to re-stock, so I bought the Nomad 2 and ive been happy with it.
I've heard decent things about this...the only complaint I heard is that it don't last for more than a year if your someone who uses it constantly.
Thanks again Andy.
Thank you Sir.
Generally you get what you pay for and being manufactured by Umarex am sure this will be reliable. But at £820 it’s a fair whack more than the BSA and other known brands, so it’ll be interesting to see your updates on this. As always an excellent review Andy 🙏
Personally I’ll be sticking with my 7 ltr tank for the foreseeable future.
Is this one actually "manufactured" by UMAREX in Germany or is it another 'Chinesium' made item?
@@regsparkes6507
If I’m not mistaken I believe they have stopped having products made ‘overseas’.
Like the 'lazy Suzie'
@@nickwebb9290 I guess it matters little provided that the expected 'quality' is there.
cool review. Thanks for sharing.
Very nice review of a compressor, which is a piece of kit that I need and am specially interested in checking out before buying.
Thanks!
Great review Andy , great bit of kit ? but £ 820 is a bit rich ! take care n thanks Andy
Nice one Andy.
Better compressors available in that price range. I've just bought a Hills. Having said that, my old cheap Chinese takeaway is still plodding on. Moisture is the nemesis with these compressors.
Does this compressor have a better water trap than the BSA compressor ?
Umarex...great company new products...🎉
Funny old thing your comment on buy cheap buy twice, I bought the 'blue' water cooled chinese thing (no names no pack drill) it was recalled last month by Amazon as it had a tendancy to go live in the electrical sense so it cost me a BSA replacement I did get my £250 back though
Worth highlighting 400W at 12V is 35 Amps, way over a car 12V socket current hence the fat cable supplied. Needs a direct battery connection and a running engine.
Carbon filtration is not needed for air rifles, a medium that absorbs moisture is what is needed!
How would you say this compares to the Air Venturi Nomad (smaller, cheaper and better looking IMHO)? Faster or slower? Louder or quieter? 😊
Nice compressor. How does it stand against the bsa gamo compressor ? And vevor does anyone know about those compressors ?
My arrived today.
First run and problem. The pressure stopped at 25 bar.
I quickly located the leak. It turned out that I had to tighten the Weihrauch nipple onto the compressor hose adapter very tightly. Now it's OK. But it may be worth buying a uniform adapter with a quick connector tip (without thread).
I use a GX-L3 airgun compressor which is about a 3rd the size and runs off 2 power tool batteries. It's also lighter and due to its small size you can leave it in the boot while you recharge your rifle.
I use the GX PUMP CS2 Portable PCP Air Compressor,
They are awesome little compressors.
Nice review and a nice compressor but at over £800 it seems quite expensive!
Love colored 0 rings
Wish they were available in kits.
A man can dream.
Great option for SHTF
The activated charcoal filter will be very handy when filling your rifle in a CBRN situation!
So you can not use this compressor to fill up an eight liter tank ? Although you would do it in cycles ? Waiting several minutes before restarting ?
Hahaha!!! "...if you have a springer!" (pregnant pause) That look just cracked me up! Good one, Andy ;)
Cheers Andy Interesting 🤔🤔
Yes please give us an update after a while. I still have my China Express unit but I am not happy with it so I am hoping it will fail soon so I can justify getting a new one. This looks like a unit I don't have to be scared when operating it as I do not trust my blue China special.
My China unit is eating compressor oil as if it where free and the oil tank gasket leaks as well. Back when I bought it there where no reasonably priced alternatives. This unit is much better priced in Germany. Nice 👍
You have a Tu Xing compressor?
Sounds like an old Fergie Tractor😮
Had a cheap chinese one. Well, still over 300€. It lasted 3 fills before it blocked down completely. Got the Hill EC right now and I'm very pleased with it. I have 4 big bottle (all over 500CC) PCP guns and only during (very) hot summer days it needs to take a break to cool down during filling one up. 3 of my guns are 300 bar rated. So: this thing looks amazing, but I'm more then happy with my Hill. Since I mostly shoot in my backyard I feel no need for a 12V option. When, very rarely, I leave my garden I'm just taking along a scuba tank. So every once and a while the Hill needs to fill the tank with a few stops. Up to now it did so flawlessly. I'm a bit curious to find out your long time test results Andy. If the Hill ever quits, this might be a cheaper solution. Have a nice weekend! Cheers, Filip.
Sounded like my BSA B25 Starfire, (Nice).
Hace tiempo compré un compresor Umarex y me ha dado fallas, pero ahora la que hace es que enciendo el compresor y como a los 1100 PSI se apaga pero en el tablero me aparece Over temperat y a los 1150 PSI se apaga como puedo solucionar este problema, pero antes quise cambiar de Psi a bares y ya después me apareció este problema hay solución?
i suggest go for the hill 3000
Where does the moisture go?
I'll stick with my Hills compressor thanks 😉
I don't understand why you'd set a temperature, surely it would cut out at a factory pre-set temperature to prevent damage and or fire?
Very nice, but for that price one can buy and fill a 7L divers cylinder quite a few times.
So are you telling me I could hook this up to a human shaped balloon so to speak and have it set on a timer to blow up to a certain pressure? Just asking for a friend a very creepy friend.. 🤣
I have one of the £150 Chinese compressors had it maybe three years and been good as gold just have to change oil regularly so I think I have had my money’s worth out of it .
HOW MUCH ??????????
Greetings and Good morning Andy < how are you this week ? 😀😀😀
NO REPLY ? ow well never mind !
I've been running a cheap Chinese compressor for around 3 years now. I drained the oil when I bought it and put in some high grade compressor oil. It gets regularly used, and including a large 300BAR gauge I added, it cost under £200. If it breaks I will just buy another one. £800 is ridiculous considering you can get a compressor that will fill a divers bottle for just over £1000.
Ther coming more 600bar Compressors, Jörg Sprave have shown one.
Probably been out almost a year now, here in the US.
Get that desk dusted you naughty boy !. lol
It's a piece of fabric covering the table.
Over priced considering the Hill compressor fills bottles as well and there are a lot cheaper pumps out there that are totally portable.
Quality may be better but when these were sold sub $500 in the US I feel that they are ripping the British consumer off a bit,
I understand the British market is smaller but it is usable throughout Europe with the different plugs included so the European market is still large enough to not warrant such a high price tag over the American price.
Well I use a cheap chinese Tu Xing compressor who is doing the job very well. Cost me around 300 pounds converted.
Filling up the Kral Big Max quite satisfactoy.
Also having had bad experience with Umarex and their customer service, would not apend easily this kind of money on their compressor
sounds like a double pedal kick drum in a heavy metal song.
cómo puedo reparar mi compresor Umarex no enciende, le aprieto el botón de encendido y no enciende todo lo de la pantalla se vente bien los psi , grados , a cuántos psi se va a llenar pero al precionar el botón de encender no arranca que puedo hacer . No encuentro ni un video que me pueda ayudar
Andy, I do wish you would mention the price before I get interested in owning something you're reviewing. The price being mentioned at the end of the review is sometimes a great disappointment when for me at least, is totally unaffordable.
£800! 🤯 that's crazy expensive. I'll stick with my Chinese one which does the trick nicely.
It looks rather like K9 from the 1980's Doctor Who episodes!!
hi, i'm wondering if you are still using the umarex readyair compressor and if you are still happy with it? or have you moved onto something better cheers
Yes I am and it has proven very reliable. no issues. stay safe. Andy
Morning All, the Obscurian 1957 model was called the Unobtanium😋
What has your experience been with this compressor now after having it for 5 months or so?? I’m looking to buy one but I just pulled up a bunch of reviews on it and it had way to many very poor reviews, on guy had got one that was dead right out of the box, wouldn’t even turn on and the 2nd one they sent him was also dead right out of the box. Many poor reviews on this unit and would like to hear about your experience with it. Thank you. Dave
so far so good, no issues. I contacted Vector Air to ask if they have had any issues or faults reported from customers…None. all good, so far 100% working with no problems. stay safe Andy
Thank you Andy for your fast reply. I will continue to take a look at this compressor.
I think it only fair that you show how it compares with you putting in an additional 100 psi with a hand pump at full speed.
😈
i bought a cheep chinese one ..yes people will say u pay for what you get..but..its 2 years old and hasnt put a foot wrong....i put top range oil in it when it arrived...and has filled up my 4 pcp's ever since...price??.....£140.....
The Mercedes though 😮
Great idea, but a very big investment?
A 12L bottle and guage etc would be less than 200£ UK.
At a top end refill cost of 5£ per top, there's a 120 fills before becoming viable 🤔
I was wondering about that. Is it better to have a big bottle or get a cheap chinese compressor
Springers dont need that but they also dont fire from a magazine
Will it pump my tyres up LOL
Up up down down left right left right A.B. start
80s cheat code for Nintendo game lol I’m old
😂
It'd Be Ok If A Few Local Mates Bought Between Them , But I'll Stick With My 12Ltr air Tank 💪💪👍😎
No oil/low maintenance/charcoal filter/but...noise/cost? I can fill my 7L tank for £10. I think this unit might best be for a group of friends/local club.
Think ill stick to springers 😁
I don't know anything about these, other than kinda wanting to try a PCP air rifle and compressor but... just glancing over at Amazon, this seems way overpriced and people are complaining of problems. I dunno.
Sorry to bother you Andy but I’m in a bit of a pickle, now I am retired I feel like giving my knees a rest and with the ReadyAir @ £620 and the Hills ec 310 evo being £850 the choice is getting harder.
Umarex doesn’t show any parts diagrams or spares availability, Hills shows everything but it’s a bit of an overkill for what I need.
So I wondered how the ReadyAir is holding up, But I really want to support British companies and I know the parts will be available.
So it would help my decision if you say that the Umarex is floundering slightly, so what do you say ! Then I won’t need to keep this video saved in my favourite section.👍
@@stephenbroadhurst7653 The hill is the one I use, but it’s the more expensive, the Umarex is good and does 12v too. The Hill will do tanks with ease. You should really go for the dry pac too. Stay safe
Stick with my divers tank nearly 3 mins to top up just 100 bar and over 800 quid.
"Nice" FastShow!
Very expensive for the average shooter,granted the build quality looks good.
All sounds good to me to make faffing on with divers bottles and constantly paying to get them filled redundant. If this is the case in real life would be interesting to know.
While it looks nice, it gets to hot and takes a long time to cool down. If you live in an area where it is hot it will take over 20 minutes just to get it down to high 80'S. Then after 20 hours you need to get a rebuild kit at a cost of $30 plus with shipping. If you shoot alot it will not last. Each time you use compressor it will takes longer and longer time to get up to pressure.
Is it just me or is Andy starting to look like Van Pelt the Hunter from Jumanji 🤔
To me its a non starter, £800 no way.
I pay approx £5 to get my 7 ltrs tank filled
That equates to 160 fills of the 7 ltrs tank.
I don't know exactly how many fills of my PCP tank I get.
But I'll personally stick with my tank in the boot and save a fortune 👍
Good reviews though
2:32:64 ........... 2x32=64 neat!
Springers for ever! The amazing DIANA 54 Air King Pro or the more economical Norica Omnia ZRS and no need for all the expensive machinery that restrains you and are good at only one thing. Leaking...
Good morning...not so sunny this Friday in Ireland
Good morning , from cloudy Yorkshire !
@simonnoble7589 drizzly...but still warm...might clear up.
@@TheRealKaner yes hope so ? need to top up my tan ? lol
So basically one can fly to burger land have a free holiday and bring one home in your hand luggage cheaper than purchasingone in the ,UK. Rob dog Umerex!
I did exactly that for my first mountain bike. Then some kind soul stole it.
Sounds like a Duracell bunny.
At just under 900 pounds I can't see any other reason to buy a hill compressor instead.
wait... 240v or 12?!.!!!!????? do you mean 120v or 12v? i KNOW im not high, i havent smoked in like 7 months and the mushrooms wore off hours ago
Nominal 240 is what we use here 😊
no we don't have wimpy 110V here in the UK
@@77appyi We need boiling water for tea now, not tomorrow 😂
Nice bit of kit way too expensive unfortunately we are not all that flush
Id rather buy a hw110😂 seems to take ages
mooooiiiiiiiiissssssst
The US price today $549 (£431.71) Are you having a laugh £820 in the UK.
Better option for few bucks more .auto shut off scarry
Quite a bit of money £820 for something that doesn't even fill a 3ltr dive bottle let alone a 7ltr. Seems like a lot for something that only fills the rifle or pistol. I have no doubt that it is quality but i think that we are definitely been ripped off.
wouldn't we all want a longer hose for more wiggle room :)... I M3AN ...NOT ME..but..like, people n stuff i think would like that.
