Quiet air compressor
« on: October 11, 2024, 06:18:49 pm »
Have a bigger compressor for in the shed, but love this one in the house. Only 60db and aluminum tank makes it very light to move around/keep in the house. Currently 17% off through Amazon

Have the cheaper model listed, been happy for the most part, see your model is listed as industrial grade. If you don't mind me asking, what are you getting for the extra dough?

Hopefully the long-life motor is the biggest difference, but I’m not buying both to compare and hope I don’t have to find out how long of a life it has anytime soon :D

The cheaper seems quite comparable with the same weight and decibel. Only difference I see in the description is:

Airflow is 3.10 CFM at 40 PSI and 2.20 CFM at 90 PSI on cheaper

Vs

Airflow is 4.00 CFM at 40 PSI and 3.00 CFM at 90 PSI

Both have fast fill and recovery times, I would recommend either one.

I also have one of the aluminum tank California Air Tools air compressors.  I love it.  Really quiet.  Real nice indoors.
