So would this be similar for a Bialaddin 310?
No not really. The Bialaddins/Vapalux's are quite hard to over pump. I have always found the lamps to need about 40-50 strokes in total, 12 to start then up to 40 additional strokes, condition of pump leather taken into consideration.
It depends how much fuel you have in the tank, a full tank may get hard to pump before your 40-50 strokes whereas a nearly empty tank will take many more strokes before it gets too hard to pump. Don't worry with these tanks, you will not be able to over pump them, the pump can literally not deliver enough pressure to harm a sound tank.
