portable air compressor

If you plan on using the compressor when your away from an electrical outlet, you will want to go with a 12V portable compressor. You could also choose to buy one with an inverter built in that will allow you to plug the unit into a standard household outlet, but also use it away from home. The models with an inverter are nice because they normally include a light, and jump starter, and sometimes even a radio.

To power air tools with a portable compressor, your only option is a 120V unit. The portable air compressors to power pneumatic tools usually come in two styles. Either a pancake air compressor or a hot dog air compressor. They are so called because of the shapes of their air tanks. To learn about the pancake and hot dog style compressors, click on the links above.

When choosing a 120 volt portable air compressor the things you need to decide on are size of the tank and air output. Portable compressors are usually light enough to carry around and put in your trunk or the back of your truck to take to a job site or where ever you need to go. Some portable air compressors have wheels that allow you to roll them from one area to another, but they may be to heavy for some people to load in the trunk of a car.

So, if you plan on buying a portable air compressor, the things you need to decide on are 12V or 120V and the size of the tank and air output. The amount of air required to run your air tools will help make your decision on how much air output you need from your compressor.
