Indeed. I had been watching some videos on using the compressor to fill a bottle whilst waiting for it to arrive. In one of them the guy said sometimes the burst disks just go and the 1st time it happens you will sh!t yourself. He wasnt wrong.

If a 5K burst disk goes on a 3k psi pump though, either the regulator is off or the burst disk isn't worth the plastic it was made of!

Well atleast i know the tank is empty now lol. Apparently it can happen below the pressure. Weirdly using a 4500 psi carbon bottle in paintball many years ago. I never had it happen a single time over 5 years.

Well, better that it fails 40% under than 40% over, I guess.

Indeed. Better than the bottle blowing apart and doing real damage to something other than my underwear! lol
