  • They say you easily and effortlessly can fill a scuba diving tank with a hand pump, but how effortless is it actually?
    I tested how long it actually takes to fill a scuba tank with a hand pump?

    I'm curious as to what other manual pump designs there are, this seems pretty inefficient but there must be a reason the design didn't change, maybe a geared bycicle would do great, it could adjust to the load and legs are quite good at hard continuous work.

    • @Christian_Wedoy
      @Christian_Wedoy  Рік тому +1

      I believe this design is like this because a bicycle style would not be very portable

    Fun fact, using a cheaper pump may result in the air hose failing after heavy usage, I had a bubble form in the line and subsequently burst after we had to air up a truck tire in the middle of nowhere.
    The hose will get very hot to the touch beforehand though, so fair warning.

      Take abroad 😮 are you kidding?
      There's no reason to take all this crap abroad. Don't forget you also need a mask, fins and a snorkel plus a belt with 5-8 pounds of lead. Also, take a diver down marker buoy so as not to get chopped into pieces by a speed boat.
      Easier to travel with a diving certificate and enjoy yourself.

  • @andrewkennedy1172
    @andrewkennedy1172 Рік тому +4

    Seems like the issue is the pump. These are multi-stage pumps, they should have designed the final stage piston/chamber with a diameter of 5.6mm. This would give a reaction (pushback) force of just 50kg when the piston hits 200bar (200kg/cm2 acting on 0.25cm2). Looks like the central final stage piston is too big a diameter. Of course this would need even more pump strokes to fill!

    • @TheDerpingDutchman
      @TheDerpingDutchman 8 місяців тому

      The issue is also the volume… you won’t get 10 minutes out of a single tank if you go deeper than 15 ft.

      I'm guessing the rules that us norms don't know.
      Like a random dude buying this then diving down 100 meters. Like what precautions are needed when breathing compressed air at depths and how they effect your body?
      Or not understanding how the reg works?
      I'm just guessing but bc of this I've signed up to get my cert.

      @@ExcavationNationteaches you about safe diving depths and how long you should be breathing at those depths to prevent decompression sickness. When you are breathing compressed air in water nitrogen bubbles form under your skin. Also breathing a normal mix of nitrogen and oxygen at certain depths can cause narcosis
