Thanks for the tip I'll try calling them on Monday hopefully they can help. It was awesome when it worked. I figure we got about 80 tanks off it before it died. I pay 18 out the door at the local oxy shop.. So around 1700$ - cost of machine and concentrator 1200$. So in the end I came out about 500$ ahead before it conked out. It appears to run totally normal sounds normal just no oxy going into the tank. As far as flame goes it was never any different since I was filling tanks instead of running off the concentrator. Purity was very good. Machine was kept indoors in a temperate controlled environment.

Mine died after 1500 hours, i think i got about 10 free tanks from it and at 50$ a tank i saved around the same as above. I ordered a new one the day my old one broke because its so convenient
I had the same problem the it stopped filling. The part where the whip plugs in went bad. They replaced it and filter with shipping 250. It runs better than before. Address: 1787 Pomona Rd # H, Corona, CA Phone: (951) 734-6440 I recommend them there service was great.
Also repped! Thanks I'm hoping mine will be as easy to fix.
Payment sent. Thanks again boston. One Love + Rep
Dan when you say "i think i got about 10 free tanks from it and at 50$ a tank" are you meaning AFTER it already made enough to break even on the initial investment?Mine died after 1500 hours, i think i got about 10 free tanks from it and at 50$ a tank i saved around the same as above. I ordered a new one the day my old one broke because its so convenient

I have nine of Homefills in stock. Most have super low hours. I am also getting a ton of requests for custom whips. I am happy to make these. I use all stainless and brass parts oxygen safe and 3000 PSI rated. I can make long whips. I can make whips that you can fill and torch at the same time. I can also make multiple tank whips or any combination.
I do discounts for people who have bought units from me or by multiple units.
Let me know if you want an compatible oxygen con. I have those too.
Is an Airsep Newlife Elite compatible?
I have had many questions on this subject. The Homefill requires 14psi and 2LPM. The homefill compatiable concentrators have a special homefill port. That put out the exactly requirements. If you use another concentrator I recommend one that has higher PSI. You also need to make sure your purity is good at a higher PSI. My recommendation is to use a compatible invacare unit. XL, Platinium XL and Perfecto II. I have had great results with all of these units and they have the price tag similar to all other 5LPM units. My whole system only uses about 450Watts metered.
1000 psi in the last 10 hours. So far everything is legit, lovin' my homefill. Relieved I'm not a slave of Airgas anymore. Thanks again boston
I have 5 low hour homefills and refurbbed oxygen cons too. I also have parts in stock for all stainless and brass whips. Let me know if you want get setup.
I have 4 units available. I also have oxygen concentrators. Happy to help anyone get setup.
so these low hour homefills are the ones that are $800 with a whip? i've got a two ex15's and a mini15 coming....i assume i only need to use one oxycon to fill but can i use two for a faster fill? i'm clueless on homefills.

Thousands of people read my threads now. So I’m trying to not embarrass myself.
Any of these left? Also price for fill unit(with whip) plus concentrator would be great![]()

What in heavens name is a "Whip"??? Seems to be pretty important but would be nice to know what it does.

When people say "whip" they are referring to the flexible hose that connects the homefill unit to the tank it is filling. Normally people connect their little green bottles directly to the homefill unit to fill them. But lampworkers are filling much larger tanks so a "whip" is needed.
Anthony, are there any of these left? i left you a voicemail a little while ago. i'm ready to order.
