n2horns Report post Posted October 23, 2023 I have used several compressors and all do well with no or limited load. Looking at how quick to refill and ability to use air tools changing tires etc.. Also, ability to reseat bead if needed. Downside is the tank recert and needing to get refilled at HVAC or weldong shops, for this will need to plan ahead and ensure tank is full. With the various sales for Turkey day or Christmas, may be worth it to buy on sale. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Spot Report post Posted October 23, 2023 Build your own. You’ll need a C02 tank (from a welding supply shop), a preset 150# regulator (part number 227C-150) some quick connect air fittings and an air hose. Works great and is much faster than the small compressors 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ctafoya Report post Posted October 23, 2023 I use on board ARB compressors. I was at UTV takeover in sand hollow this week and checked out some of the power tank options the vendors had. I will definitely go that route in the future. Waaay more air to do what needs to be done in a fraction of the time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I like mine but like I said I usually forget it and only use it went I know I have to air up a tire on an old truck or something. I've seen people use old scuba tanks and the old co2 tanks from old school soda machines as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
catclaw Report post Posted October 25, 2023 If you have to use their tank that's an real thing. For welding gasses, my supplier just swaps cylinders, the gas doesn't matter. Just as long as it's the same size Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
