What is the favored air compressor to carry?

A Viair 300 small, compact comes in a bag and has enough punch to air up my RV tires and small enough to fit in my under compartment storage bay.

I've been using the older Sears version of THIS one for over 10 years. Lightweight, quiet and will handle any tire.

I carry a Dewalt HERE for my needs. It fits nicely in one of my spare (LOL) storage bins. Since we tow motorcycles every where it gets a lot of use. Those motorcycle and trailer tires tend to leak air more than the RV tires for some reason.

I also carry two but neither has a tank. One is a simple 12v and the other uses a.c.. If all you need them for is tire inflation then save the weight of a tank type.

I carry this one in its nice tote bag under the back seat of my truck.. Q Industries MV50 SuperFlow High-Volume 12-Volt Air Compressor - got mine from AMAZON back in 2009...

When I need to use it I sit it on my truck tail gate and usually clip into the trailer battery bank close by. I can get to all the truck tires and trailer tires from my tail gate with ease.

I also use this for blowing out my water lines on the trailer when needed using an air adapter on the city water connection. Since this is a tankless type air compressor it takes alittle time to get really pressured up which is perfect for blowing out my water lines. Gives me time to get to the sink to get water flowing down the drain.



A must have unit when camping off the power grid...

I usually become king of the camp ground when the kids find out we have an air compressor for their bike tires.

I carry two. One is a Sears pancake type for my 80 psi tires and the other is a smaller one for our bike tires.
