Phill

The Phill VRA is BRC FuelMaker's most heavily advertised product and was developed in partnership with Honda for its Civic GX, although it will fuel any NGV. Phill is a home, mainly indoor, natural gas fueling device. It mounts on the wall of your garage and slowly compresses natural gas to fill your vehicle. Phill is certified as a home appliance and is as safe as any other natural gas appliance that you may have in your home. A new Phill system costs approximately $4,500. Phill's compressor is good for 6,000 hours of service (approximatley 3,000 GGE's of CNG), then must be refurbished at the FuelMaker headquarters for approximatley $2,000. Federal (and possibly state/local) incentives exist for the purchase and installation of a new Phill system.
From my research, Phill is a good device but can take up to 16 hours to fill a Civic GX's 8 gallon tank. I recommend you compare Phill with one of FuelMaker's single compression module units when contemplating a private/home refueling appliance.
