Portable air compressor advice is needed
I'd like to purchase a dc powered portable air compressor for my travel trailer, just in case I need to top off the tires while on the road. I already own two other compressors that I prefer to leave...

12 volt compressors are a mixed bag. FIrst question is what PSI do you run in your trailer?
If it's less than 50. Most of them work. Some are faster. Some slower. Most work
IF it's over 60 Well I think my 12 volt AAA labeled box blows the car's fuse at 45 PSI or there about. That's enough for a SHORT drive (As the pressure goes up so do the amps) of course for the Motor home forget about it
Last two times I aired up a car tire (30 psi) I used an Air Dragon. I really got it for the old biclcle but it managed on the slow-leaking car tire twice before I was scheduled to hit the tire shop. Then it quit leading (Replaced tire).
