I use a Blue Tongue had it for 13 years slow but never let me down  :cup:

X 2 already outlasted a few ARB'S I know of. Feeds a 9 litre air tank and is rated at 50psi, 100% duty cycle. Very happy with it so far.

Come on Mainey, I am waiting to hear of the obscure brand compressor you bought because somebody's uncle who know's somebody at a compressor shop said it was the best...

I really like the wording on the base of your profile statement: " A clever person solves a problem. A wise person avoids it " ;D

I use a "heavy duty" Repco unit.  First one died after 5 seconds of use, was replaced by Repco with the heavy duty version due to them not having any of the one I originally bought.  New one is still slow, takes forever to pump up the tyres on the commodore (just from 35 to 40psi), takes even longer to pump up a flat on a Colorado, I thought it wasn't working.  I'd hate to see how slow the first one would've been if it had worked.

I wouldn't buy another one.

I finally got round to replacing the wiring/cable on my Tigerz11 compressor recently with some 8B&S. (Cheers Drivesafe :cup:)

I also cut an Anderson plug into the end of it as well, so I can plug it into the rear Anderson for convenience.

I'm not so good with advice... can I interest you in a sarcastic comment?

Bushranger air max 2. Well build, fast and 5 yr warranty. Shop around, got mine for $300.

X2 for the Bushranger Maxair 2.

6 years old now and still like new.

The one I had prior was a Maxair eBay ripoff.  Would pop fuses when pressure got above 30psi.
