need a air compressor for a class c motor home. Do not have a lot of room. size of tires is 225/75/16 10 ply. Bought a small compress takes way to long and to noisy. need one that will do 80lbs. Maybe a cylinder type.

Pancake compressor. Bought a Porter Cable from Lowes on sale last spring. Liked it so much i gave away my large compressor. Now its the only thing I have

Dewalt D551409" height fits in my Class C outer storage. 1 gal tank, 135 psi.Good for tires And blowing out water lines for Winterizing. This is handy if you need to Winterize on the road. Same unit also sold under different branding.I also gave away the Big compressor since this works well.For tires Only, might consider a high output tank-less like the 4x4 truck guys use. Much smaller..

I have a 2 HP Craftsman tank less compressor. It will inflate my tires in a few minutes to 110 lbs. With 2 HP, it doesn't bog down inflating at high pressure.

Ii have a B+ which seems to have less outside storage than a C. I found a compressor at Harbor Freight that is small and gets it's power from a DC battery. I checked it and the cables are long enough to reach from my coach batteries to all tires. I plan to use it only when tires need air and i am at a campsite. I don't know the name of it as it is in my MH which is in storage. I have never had to use it yet, so I don't know how long it would take to fill a tire. Since I only plan to use it in emergencies, I don't mind if it takes an extra 10 minutes to top off a tire. It is small enough to fit under my dinette seat. Before a trip, i use a bigger compressor in my garage.

For a small and compact air compressor that fits the bill and is easy to store in my class c I got a Viair,one of best names on the market.
