Most of us have used a 12v compressor one time or another. The benefit of a dual-piston air compressor is it will pump up your tire twice as fast.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If I was to recommend a cheap new air compressor to someone I would have to recommend the <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/2GLhQF3\">Slime 40026 2X Heavy Duty Tire Inflator.<\/a> This is a dual piston-cylinder that has large alligator clips to connect to your battery.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B005Z8HAUK\/ref=as_li_ss_il?ie=UTF8&amp;linkCode=li3&amp;tag=10efd-20&amp;linkId=f4432ea398ecd1cb06467260ab69a921\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow noreferrer\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/\/ws-na.amazon-adsystem.com\/widgets\/q?_encoding=UTF8&amp;ASIN=B005Z8HAUK&amp;Format=_SL350_&amp;ID=AsinImage&amp;MarketPlace=US&amp;ServiceVersion=20070822&amp;WS=1&amp;tag=10efd-20\" alt=\"slime portable air compressor reviews\"\/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<ul>\n<li><span class=\"a-list-item\">Inflates a standard 15inch car tire in 2 minutes.<\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><span class=\"a-list-item\">Dual cylinder piston inflator for maximum air volume.<\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><span class=\"a-list-item\">Direct drive inflator that connects directly to the battery for maximum power.<\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><span class=\"a-list-item\">Large dial gauge in-line on the air hose included.<\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><span class=\"a-list-item\">30-foot coil air hose and a bright LED light for night use.<\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Max current 22 amps<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Air velocity volume of 1.9 CFM<script><\/script><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Cheaper plastic units will use a cigarette lighter plug for power.

We have this compressor in our 4&#215;4 for when we go driving on the beach. We always let our tires down to get more of a footprint in the soft sand. The Gobege is great to be able to pump all 4 tires back again in under 10 minutes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The alligator clamps are nice and long so coupled with the coil hose you can reach around all 4 tires of your car as well as your neighbor&#8217;s car if&nbsp;they are parked next to you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I have always liked the Gobege high-volume air compressor mainly due to its rugged all-metal construction. I really dislike the small cheap plastic compressors that take ages to pump up one tire.

What needs to be taken into account is the recommended air pressure for the tool you are using as well as the size and length of the hose. Most hoses are 50 feet and as such will have a fair bit of loss.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Make sure to use a heavy-duty air hose that is oil and abrasion-resistant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When using any pneumatic tool the loss of air while using it will cause a slight drop in pressure. This air pressure drop will increase the longer your hose is. Most air tools will run fine at 90 psi but for optimum power, you need to set the running pressure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To fix this problem you will need to set your static pressure higher. This will then make your working pressure lower when taking into account the air pressure drop.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There is no magic formula to work this out. It&#8217;s all trial and error depending on the airpower tool used and the length of your quality air hose. It&#8217;s important to know that most portable high-volume air compressors without an air tank are unsuitable for air power tools.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Real Tool reviews explain this well:<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Air Pressure : Working PSI - VS - Static PSI\" width=\"696\" height=\"392\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/MHx2EUWYzuM?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">&nbsp;How to adjust the pressure on the Dewalt portable air compressor<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Most quality high-volume air compressors will have two gauges. One for the static air tank pressure and one for the working pressure. As we mentioned earlier both are required for making sure you have the right pressure for your tool.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Most pneumatic hand tools work in the range of 90 to 110 PSI some heavy-duty house framing nailers can operate a lot higher. So it&#8217;s important to set the working pressure with the regulator.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"294\" src=\"https:\/\/notsealed.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/dewalt-air.jpg\" alt=\"DEWALT D55146 4-1\/2-Gallon 225-PSI Hand Carry Compressor with Wheels\" class=\"wp-image-3093\" srcset=\"https:\/\/notsealed.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/dewalt-air.jpg 600w, https:\/\/notsealed.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/dewalt-air-300x147.jpg 300w, https:\/\/notsealed.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/dewalt-air-324x160.jpg 324w, https:\/\/notsealed.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/dewalt-air-533x261.jpg 533w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>Most air compressor regulators can adjust the pressure from 0 all the way up to 200 PSI+ In the case of the Dewalt unit shown above, turning the regulator adjustment nob clockwise will set the pressure higher. Turning anti-clockwise will reduce the pressure. The compressor is set to turn on and charge the main tank at around 150PSI and will cut off at 200PSI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As always test your tool for the correct running pressure before use and take note of the working pressure drop.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Power Tank small compressed air tank &#8211; PT10-5250BK<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Power Tank is a leading company in portable CO2 air tanks.

It&#8217;s just another option.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What&#8217;s very obvious is it looks just like a scuba tank. But in fact, they are the more heavy duty. These are engineered to provide you with safe easy-to-use portable compressed air. Because CO2 is compressed as a liquid as it expands the air volume increases dramatically and at very high pressure. Shown above is a <span class=\"a-list-item\">10 LB C02 Capacity Tank which equals around 640 gallons of shop air.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It&#8217;s important to know that these CO2 portable compressed air tanks can be stored in any position vertically, horizontally, and even upside down. But when you want to use the air it&#8217;s very important to either stand it upright or at a 30 deg angle. This is because the CO2 liquid needs to be on the bottom.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Is CO2 Safe for tools?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>This portable vehicle air tank which holds CO2 is very safe for your&nbsp;air power tools. Its air delivery is dry and leaves no residue. In fact its the same product used to carbonate water for fizzy drinks. The air volume out of these tanks is insane. Enough for framing tools, impact drivers, and able to reseat 4&#215;4 tire beads.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you would like to know more about <a href=\"https:\/\/powertank.com\/apps\/help-center\">Power tank then check out their FAQ here.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You will be able to get 4+ full tire fills off one bottle and don&#8217;t be concerned about refilling the CO2 as this is easy. Filling these CO2 bottles should cost less than 20 dollars at any local&nbsp;fire extinguisher service shops, welding gas suppliers, or beverage carbonics&nbsp;store. Depending on your location.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Large volume air compressors&nbsp;conclusion<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>At the end of the day, there are so many options for you. Most people just want an emergency portable air compressor for their tires.
