YES! Sooner or later you will need one and often at a less than convenient time and location {Remember Mr. Murphy}. I had the 100 Psi pancake from Harbor freight but it is slow, loud and takes a lot of space. Replaced it with a small, shoebox size, Porter cable. Also loud and slow but very compact and gets the job done even on my LTX's.
Recently picked up a combo unit - compressor, jump start/charger, even has a work light, again at Harbor Freight {$84}. It is smaller than the pancake, quicker and quieter and doesn't take much space. Nice to have the multi functions available.
Every time I have helped someone out who did not have but needed a compressor/jumpstart/charger they have all said they were going to go right out and get one.
