Steve's Recommendation

This unit is a more powerful air compressor than our "Good" pick- it can run a 1/2" impact wrench without an air tank!

For comparison, many 12-volt units take almost a minute to fill a 5 gallon air tank from 120psi to 150psi; this unit takes only 11 seconds. Some folks use this for their air suspension systems; check out the video.

It's rated as Extended Duty because the manufacturer recommends 50-hour service intervals. The deep fins and cooling fan reduce heat and wear.

There's a connection point so you can install a switch, but you will need to supply the switch. The unit also comes with 10' of #4 AWG cable to make the install easier.

If you need more power in a small package, check out the unit that earned our "Best" rating.
