This video is designed to show you step-by-step how to build a tennis ball pressurizer solution for 120 balls and cost around $80 to build. I have all the parts you will need and the links to purchase them are below.
I will create a follow-up video to test how well the tennis ball pressurizer solution worked and validate if this solution is either a success or failure.
Please note: you will want to remove the 1/4 nut from the Shrader valve adaptor so you can press it into the MFL 1/4 connector. I used a hammer and gently hit the top of the shrader valve until the two parts connected.

As the air filters into the balls the pressure in the tank will drop, so for best results you should top off the tank every couple of days. Going over about 25 psi may cause some balls to collapse and they will not be filled, so starting with 25 psi for the first few days and then working up will reduce this problem. If you listen you can hear balls collapsing providing your compressor is not too noisy. If any balls collapse drop the pressure to zero and start over and don't go as high for a few days, then work up. Some brands of balls respond better than others. Occasionally balls left too long at high pressure will become super-bouncers and bounce higher than new balls, but they calm down pretty quickly as they are used.

Did it work? I tried to see a second video but I couldn’t find!

Hi, first of all, thanks for sharing this knowledge. I'm buying a corn pump to inflate my balls. I have a few questions: * Is there a minimum number of balls to put inside? Or do you need to fully charge the corn pump each time? * I train once a week using around 20 balls. Will it work to maintain ball pressure between trainings?

@dkllei27 3 года назад

Thank you sir for posting this. It's great you listed all the parts needed. I'm going to build them to store balls for this winter!

@diggler2002 4 года назад

I am in the process of making my pressuriser. I have received my keg. I have ordered a barbed disconnect. I have a schrader valve off a bicycle tyre. I am going to join the valve to the disconnect with a 5mm wide tube and secure both ends with hose clamps.

@diggler2002 3 года назад

@@Ebbzzor Not so good. You can't repressurize dead balls. It is like putting a bicycle tyre inside a pressure chamber and expecting it will pump up the tyre.

@hp15132 10 месяцев назад

Thanks for the video and the results video too, it is a very good experiment. I wonder what if I just used my car spare tyre and inserted the balls inside to do the same exactly, what do you think? Thanks again

@Sandysand701 Год назад

you should only add around 12-15 psi, or the ball will be too hard, I usally pump my canister to around 20psi then leave it for 6 weeks or more, some balls take even longer! Depends on the make, usally they re-inflate at the same rate/time it took them to deflate. Nice kit you made.

@ivanouyang9875 2 года назад

Thank you for your sharing. could you also post a video to show how good the bounce of the tennis balls after they got pressurized ?

@joshuagahm8768 3 года назад

Since the balls take up a lot of the volume of the keg, and since the pressure in the balls is low at first, I'd have expected the pressure in the keg to drop over time as the compressed air seeped into the balls. It would have been nice to see the pressure in the kegs at the end of two weeks. I'd expect that if there were fewer balls in the keg and/or the keg was left for longer time then the balls might become overinflated.

@apieceofbread9022 2 года назад

@willn2597 2 года назад

What is the recommended pressure for keeping/refreshing the (nearly) new balls, i.e. after couple weeks of play? 30-32 is good for repressurizing old balls, but probably too much for the new balls?

@amrithsamuel5527 3 года назад

Love the video, I bought the compression valve and the MFL connector but was unable to get the valve to snap into the connector using a vise. Would you be able to make a tutorial video showing how to do that?

@hakank1475 2 года назад

I had the same issue, thinking it was not snapped properly. There is a little space even after you snapped it.

@NRafa7 Год назад

@@hakank1475 Same for me. Doesn't feel tight or air tight.

@jamesyoh1373 Год назад

Thank you for the lovely video. A quick question: I assume that the old balls have the same pressure as our atmosphere as you placed them inside the kegs. After you initially set the pressure to 30 PSI, did you have to put more air inside the keg later since the keg's internal pressure was reduced by the increase of pressure inside the balls?

@olavhgasen8123 Год назад

Good point

@randgraham1 Год назад

@mtrindade8004 4 года назад

Thanks for doing this video!!! Great idea to prevent more junk in the landfill. I am going to build this because we go through 75 balls every 3 weeks. Wondering if you tested this at a higher pressure to see if it takes less time to re-pressurize the balls? So they don't have to sit there for 2 weeks? I hear the commercial unit does the job much faster. I'm not familiar with tolerance of these tanks, valves or seals. I will be soon.

@TheAutoDIYGuy 2 года назад

Awesome video man! Quick question though…when pressurizing the chamber, I noticed that I’m hearing and feeling “popping” inside (at around 30 PSI). Are the tennis balls bursting? 😲 The balls are about a year old.

@tikokamide3989 2 года назад

if the balls are too low pressure, then you need to start with 20psi for 2 or 3 weeks. Otherwise they will implode...

@tikokamide3989 2 года назад

if you use such pressures for really old balls, they will shrink and won´t inflate. Start with 20psi for 2-3 weeks at least
