Portable Air Compressor Deal

If you've been wanting one of those VIAIR 400P-RV compressors, the price has dropped quite a bit lately on the zon. Not sure if it's temporary or a permanent but just wanted to pass the info along. The non-RV version (no dual tire chuck or extension hose) is also at a really great price. Just picked one up for myself.

The 400P puts out more air (CFM) but has a 33% duty cycle. The 450P has less CFM with a 100% duty cycle. Essentially one pumps faster but cannot run as long (400P) while the other does not pump as fast, but runs for longer periods of time (450P). 400 for normal use, 450 if needed for multiple tires.

Thumbs up Prefer Porter Cable...awesome

I went with the Porter Cable 150 psi pancake compressor...puts out more CFM @ 90psi than the other one. Carry a 50' air hose that works awesome too. Can plug it in at outside plug and the hose reaches to all tires on 5er and my 3500hd Duramax without a problem...easy peasy If I need air on the road I just plug it in to my Champion Genny.

Got the tank at Home Depot for $99 on sale.

I think that Porter cable is one of the best air compressors for the price on the market.
