ummm.. the "recommended" max is 200
so, anyways its a little high, but thats the idea of pressure tests is to not just push limits but make sure stuff dont break above and beyond the call of duty

right now the tanks are reading 185, and i cant source a leak, but also its been cooling down and the air coming out of the compressor is HOT, i mean very hot, so the air in the tanks is cooling down a lot more than the ambiant air

i'll know tomorrow of i have a real leak
