^^ when and where did you get yours? I bought one direct a couple of years ago, but was quite disappointed by it. It's a genius idea (that your link utterly fails to understand) but mine was let down by poor manufacturing and second rate materials*. I believe early production was better, with a couple of better but more costly details. Maybe production has got better again now?
( * Rough anodising on the aluminium middle cylinder, mould lines on the outside of the pressure gauge that defeated the inner cylinder seal until i polished them off, the valve between the inner cylinder and the pressure gauge leaks so although the pump works the gauge doesn't and the pump is less efficient than it could be. I think that valve is one of the details they cheapened.)
