I'm a general contractor and I just bought this compressor for a couple specific uses. To run my pneumatic nailers before power is on a job site for things like tacking mudsills, form work, etc. saves me from having to drag a generator out. I also plan on using it for room to room finish carpentry work. I have a full compliment of pneumatic nailers and didn't want to have to invest in going to all battery powered nailers but wanted the capability of being able to use a nailer without a generator. This thing just effectively turned all my pneumatic nailers into battery powered nailers for the price of a single battery powered nailer.
I can’t decide if I want to buy into this thing yet. It certainly would help with emergency situations out on the road but I don’t see it replacing my corded compressor. The benefits don’t seem to outweigh the cost. Excellent information as always though brother!
Honestly I think it will excel when you have to go into somebody's house and now you don't have this loud compressor running most of the day because I like to do trim by myself and either I'm lucky or I learn something for my father because when I'm done trimming out windows the floor ceiling I get nothing but compliments so having a nice quiet compressor would be nice
This is the video I've been looking for! I'm getting into roadside assistance services with a few friends and we were looking to invest in some of these compressors hooked up to small impact wrenches. Could you do a quick video taking off/torquing on some lug nuts?
You can remove 5 lug nuts at MOST. You will then have to wait until the pressure builds up again until you can remove any more. When putting the lug nuts back on, it generally uses more air, so expect around 3 lugs and then wait again. It is better than using a lug wrench, but understand that for each tire you must remove and replace, plan on 10 minutes per tire. It also has an overheating sensor and depending on the air temps. it may shut down if it gets really hot from continuous operation. He mentions die grinders in the video. FORGET it, Lol. This is a great unit but some stationary 60 gallon 5HP 2 stage compressors have a hard time depending on the size and CFM requirements of die grinders, DA sanders and other tools. Forget any paint spraying unless you are using a small air brush. HVLP guns will crush this unit. It is made for small nailers, brad and pin guns, airing up tires and other small jobs that do not require or have large CFM' requirements.
Ahh......loving on a recently purchased lightweight and quiet corded right now for work, but? One of these would sure be a part of the M18/M12 godsend for camping and active travel. Milwaukee’s breadth of M18 and M12 tools service ‘play’ better than any other maker by far. (Play is a much better four letter word than work.....JMHO lol.)
Great Review. Thank You very much. I’m surprised to see that you haven’t reviewed DeWalt 60v Compressor yet. I am thinking of buying one as I have invested in DeWalt platform, and would love to hear your opinion on it. Thank you.
Hmm. 🤔 I'm wondering how it would do for interior drywall spray texture. Orange peel usually requires 100 psi with a hand-held hopper gun. I've NO idea if this would hold up beyond patch repair work. 🤔
It would be nice to know how many roofing nails it can do into 3/4 sheeting, before needing a break to fill up. For full roofs it's useless. But I could see maybe for sheds, carports, patch jobs, or a couple squares on a porch addition.
Actually since today is my birthday are you going to surprise me at the end and say this is my birthday gift I will act surprised but this is the Dilemma do I buy and a capresso or do I buy new guns cordless what do you recommend I really don't know yet😎🇺🇸👊
@@ToolReviewZone trust me I believe it I know I needed something just like if you need anything if I have it I'll send it to you I tried calling you before but thank you for the birthday comment
@@ToolReviewZone yeah I'm sitting in traffic trying to get home they give you a ring see what you were up to all right bro I have a good one hopefully everything is all good I'll talk to you later✌👊🍻 what have I make pretend beer right now Chinden in Italian it means like a thousand years I'll talk to you later
I dont see battery powered compressor to be used anywhere. Roadside assitance - oil compressor, Mechanic oil/power outlet. For floaties, tires or kick balls a small 18V inflator will be enough than chugging around a compressor.
What would be your average say Porter Cable pancake compressor just because a lot of people have those what would be the decibel on that just so we can compare the two
I’m thinking of buying one too run a coil nailer shooting 45mm nails for fencing, so that would 3 nails at a time then stop place next board then 3 again. Im asking if anyone’s done similar and what are the results with style of nail as iv only seen videos with Brad and framing nails and 45mm coil nails are in the middle of the two, so any help would be good.
This isn't good for mobile automotive work which is what i do as well as shop work its not big enough to air up more then 1 full size suv or truck tire just to small and to slow Clint @ToolReviewZone
This comment is cheerfully presented as a direct response to the obligatory "it really sucks" that appears in the title of 90% of RUclips wet/dry vacuum reviews :-)
Has anybody that owns the cordless air compressor filled a 5 gallon or 15 gallon tank with it? I know this is not what it is meant for but I'm wondering how long it takes to fill it. My real world application would be filling my bait cannon at the beach and this would save me from having to haul a compressor and generator. I already tried the m12 inflator and it overheats after 20mins and tops out at 65psi

That is real nice like but, how long does a 12Ah battery lasts on it? Oh and smeesh that like button 👀👉🏽 👍🏽
12.0 battery will fill the tank from empty about eight times on one charge.
Right on, I was getting around 7 but I agree 👊
Yeah bro, around 7 or eight times . Thanks for the smeeeesh Jason!!!
I understand that a 12ah will shoot about 1600 brad nails. (Not a bad number for small to medium sized trim jobs.)
@@Dale37 shit thats not good

the only thing they missed was adding an ac option so you could plug it up, but i guess the duty cycle wouldnt allow for it

I think for portability this is a great solution. I wish it was a hybrid. Then there is the price 📈💰💰💰. Iam not ready to make the switch.
The pressure regulator knob is probably hard to turn so that it doesn't move from vibration.
I just bought one for my mobile small engine repair. Excited!!
On my list. Thanks for the review!

To drain condensation open the valve with it at the bottom.

Do a review of that planer in the background and Smeeeesh that like button 😂

Good video Clint @ToolReviewZone
Im a roofer still thinking bout getting it just for small repairs
Lmfao love the thumbnail 🤣 @ToolReviewZone
If that was the case the Milwaukee M12 air pump works fine and you'll save yourself a whole lot of money
Does this have a wall plug ? 🔌

Can you do a garage tour
Yeah, I have to clean it first though lol👊
Just get the 14 gallon ridgid out lol. Also I'm going to get a ridgid HD1800 wet dry vac and I will make a video about it soon
Have you have the problem when the knob pressure regulator is lock and how do you unlock it?
Can you plug this thing in if you want?
Is there any way to rig this to run off a bigger battery? Like a car battery?
I dont see battery powered compressor to be used anywhere. Roadside assitance - oil compressor, Mechanic oil/power outlet. For floaties, tires or kick balls a small 18V inflator will be enough than chugging around a compressor.
Can I use this air compressor with the Tornador black?
What would be your average say Porter Cable pancake compressor just because a lot of people have those what would be the decibel on that just so we can compare the two
Close to 85/90db on those damn things bro. That's the OSHA limit for hearing protection at an 8 hour day

LMFAO this is REAL NASS LIKE, CLINTBO-NER to the rescue
Yo TRZ! What were you saying while the compressor was on? I sseen your lips moving but I'll admit I've let my CIA lip reading training lax a bit.
He's not a big fan
I was saying Clint-bo should have been a bigger start than that wimpy Rambo bro👊
My 2.5 gallon flexvolt is defenitly lighter weight then the Milwaukee and it has a bigger tank @ToolReviewZone
2.5 is not bigger than 3 🤷🏻♂️
@@jasonsims9512 the Milwaukee isn't a 3 gallon

The question is why wouldn’t you want a cordless compressor? Lol.
Yo Dan
Honda 97 what’s good?!?!
Haha, great question
I’d pay $150 for this. It’s nice and quiet and small and kinda incapable.
😂 I got it today
It really blows... in a good way.
