Re: How much air PSI can a standard propane bottle safely hold????

It can handle well above what your home compressor can produce.
@ 70 degrees the propane vapor pressure is around 125 PSI and it goes up with the temperature. The vent valve of a normal gas grill type tank is set for 375 PSI so the tank can take at least that.....but your home compressor will never pump that much.

Bad planning on your part does not necessarily constitute an instant emergency on my part....

The great thing about being a pessimist is that you are either pleasantly surprised or right.
