Sphere recharging

Selling off one (or bits :o) of your XM collection, or perhaps searching for those elusive headlight washer covers? This is the place to do it.

Sphere recharging

Post by Polestar » Sat Oct 04, 2025 5:38 pm

Hi there, I have a large collection of spheres collected over the years and it seems to make sense for me to test and recharge these rather than keep buying new ones each time. I am after your help finding a kit of parts that would enable me to do this. Any and all help gratefully recieved. Murray

People generally make their own rigs.
There is a valve system available from Tecnosir, though dealing with them can be rather fraught as they often don't answer requests. The valves cost about £10 each and in my experience sometimes weep gas. https://www.tecnosirstore.com/en_GB

Depending on where you are it might be worth finding a member with testing and refilling rigs to test yours.
