They don't sound like a regular air compressor. They don't have pistons. They aren't as loud as my shop model but that isn't saying much either.
The cool thing about them is they can restart when the pressure drops to around 75 pounds or so and it doesn't trip the circuit breaker. They'll run any of the air nailers but you'll keep it running if you try to use a tire gun or air ratchet... ----- Original Message ----- From: William Stephan To: [email protected] Sent: Sunday, July 19, 2009 10:12 AM Subject: RE: [BlindHandyMan] trouble airing a tire I'm curious, how loud is one of those pancake models?

If anyone wants one, they will be on sale through August 10. I wanted to air up the tires on our wheel barrow. I aired up one ok but the other tire will not air up. I push on the air chuck and nothing happens. Any ideas? John [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]
