Onboard air question
I have a Truck/Rv 250-psi Cordless Air Compressor and would like to
know if this would be OK to use as a compressor for my onboard air. I
use it to air up after offroading but it would be better if I turned
it into an onboard system with a small tank. Would it be powerful
enough or am I just waisting money? Does anyone use this type of
compressor for there onboard air?

Re: Onboard air question
I don't think it'll last long enough to make a bracket and storage
tank for, at least I've gone though four of the twenty dollar verity
that plug into the lighter, they seem to pump up one tire and from then
on they just runs and runs and nothing happens. Hook up an old York:

Re: Onboard air question
That low-air volume (high air pressure capacity means nothing... it's air
volume that you're after) compressor is not a good choice for serious use as
an offroad tire inflator. It just doesn't pump out enough volume to be more
than a frustrating tool to use. It will take 40-45 minutes to air up four
good size tires after they've been aired down for offroading.
While I seldom agree with Bill, his suggestion to use a York compressor for
that task is right on. It puts out enough air volume to actually be usable
and air up tires in short order. I can air up all four of my 35x12.50 tires
in about five minutes... 5 minutes total for all four tires. :)
I've had mine installed with an air tank for over five years now and it puts
out enough air volume that I can run my air tools on the trail. Go to
www.onboardair.com for more information. By the way, I only spent $35 for
my York F210 compressor at a junkyard so there's no need to buy one new like
from that site I gave the link to. :)
