Nathan,

I am just guessing , but I think 12-13 psi will be a good guideline for what you may achieve. The motors in those inflators are not rated for continuous duty, so it may give up on you at some point.

One other comment after watching the golf ball shooter video. PLEASE learn to wear safety glsses when doing you mad scientist experiments. You know the old saying,"it's all fun and games until someone puts an eye out."
