Re: Will recharge BOMBS for food

[Daniel Jones <captaudi@ma.ultranet.com>]

This sounds like a great plan but if I am not mistaken the LOW psi warning
is 107 bar or 1500+ psi,  Therefore the rebuilt bomb would still fail the
test and the light would come on under usage.  I believe the pressure
needed should exceed 107 bar and really be closer to system pressure (don't
remember what that is right now).  Correct me if I'm wrong.
