100-----8----------150

sure, but why tax your 12v system with a 180 amp draw when you have 110v available which is far more efficient?

X2 You can pick one up at Lowe's.

X2 works for me!

They aren't cheap. But extremely portable and will fill anything. Top off ours all the time. Used for many years. Buildt very well. Can use the toad battery or MH battery to run it.

Google viair, oasis compressors, Kilby and York to name a few.
There are some great setups out there in all $ ranges.

Some things to remember when choosing compressors.
Duty Cycle, CFM and Max. Pressure.

Far more capable? They're both capable. Are you talking about filling a flat tire? Then yes the AC will give you more CFM ... When you reach higher tire pressures. But most people aren't filling a flat tire on their MH, they're topping off a couple pounds. It's takes less than 15 seconds a tire to get ours topped off ( no more than a lb or two off).

I'm just not seeing the AC powered heavy bulky compressors are that important for tire "topping off". If you pulling lug nuts or shooting nails then I totally agree.

I too have a pancake compressor. It never leaves the garage anymore.

Several people have mentioned what gallon compressor they have. I have posted several times before if you are just going to use it for tires, get rid of the tank you don't need it. will save space and weight.
