..Looking for a new air compressor for the MH tires etc..

[MrWizard]

My 12v MV1050 Tsunami compressor would have been 10 years old in March, but today something broke, and it's making loud rattling noise, I was airing up a low tire, shut it down for a cool down (it sounded normal when it was running, no unusual sounds) when I restarted 20 minutes later, it was all noise, something in the piston mechanism gave out.and broke during the turn on
It had a good run and served me well,
Now I need a replacement,
( the motor is still good, I might find a use for it in the future )

I thinking on getting a 120vac version, the Sears wall hanger version No Longer available would have been a good choice, who has a good choice on sale.

The broken Tsunami is Viair cousin from the same Mfg, about the same price
I have used the inverter for the shop vac, the 12 amp skill saw, craftsman electric chainsaw ,MW, coffee maker etc..
No real reason not to use a 120v compressor,
And will cost less than a 12vDc model of the same capability,
That compressor was the only "Corded" 12vdc only tool I own

There are a lot of 12 volt options for airing up a tire. Why use a 120 volt option that would require using the generator or inverter?

Have you looked at VIAIR?

I run the tiny Senco from Home Depot, it was the smallest 120v I could find at the time. I don't use it an awful lot but it has aired up several tires to 80psi for me over the past few years so I can't complain. It is quiet.

I guess it depends on how high psi you need. We have a Porter Cable pancake compressor that will handle up to 150 psi. We have a motorhome.
