Default Small air compressors
Just curious if anyone knows of a good, small 110v air compressor for maintaining tire pressure. Nothing serious or expensive...just something that works and where can I get one? I'd go shopping now, but the weather sucks. Thanks!!

You should be able to find what you want at Northern Tools, Sears, Pep Boys, Harbor Freight, to name a few.

Although I have mostly Craftsman tools, I would stay away from their air compressors as they operate at a lot higher pressure than necessary and are loud!!

A year ago for my Xmas present my wife bought the below to upgrade from my smaller one so I could more easily run my air tools...

Be sure to check Sam's club... they have from inexpensive to the ultimate...

Hey, thanks guys! I just decided to get out in the storm and got another one from Sears. The old one was from Sears and petered out but after remembering how long I had used it and how much I used it, it wasn't really a bad deal.

The really good news is that tomorrow, the weather is going to be good and I'll be gone someplace on a Harley!

Ride Safe,

Wolf
