Just be sure you drain the tank after using and before storing. They will rust out if you dont and then its buy a new compressor.

He meant if you run a DeWalt or Ryobi cordless system you can get an air compressor that runs off of the batteries. Which is easier than a big long cord and hot dog compressor.Originally Posted by Totem Polar
I have a 1-gallon Ryobi. It will fill four tires in about 1/2 the time as it takes my 12v VIAIR to fill them. And the VIAIR is near the top of the line for non-dedicated 12vs.
But the Ryobi can't handle more than a couple of shots with an impact gun or more than about 10-seconds of continues compressed air blast without turning back on. And it's LOUD. I have mine in a plastic tub surrounded by a moving blanket and it's still annoying. And on an 8ah battery the tank will fill from empty to full about 6 times and the battery is dead.
No drill or impact driver?!

Okay, he's asking what batteries you are married to.
I'm a Makita and Bosch guy, so this was a no brainer as I already had batteries and chargers:

I bought a harbor freight pelican knock off to carry it in.
Adding nothing to the conversation since 2015....
I’ve got a decent cordless drill that I use all the time. No impact driver though.

Brand? Voltage?
This. This is some important shit, here!

My local Ace Hardware stocks reman Porter-Cable 110V pancake compressors....something along the lines of 2 hp / 4 gal for around $79. Sometimes on sale for $69. They'll also run most air tools if you'll be patient and let them catch up from time to time. I've used something similar for nearly 20 years that I bought used from a pawn shop for $50. I remember to drain the tank every 5 years or so. Every house ought to have something like this at bare minimum...compressed air has a lot of uses.
I bought one of these earlier this year and really like it. The thing is seriously quiet, and seems very well-built.
