Look good, I was looking at them in the current ARB mag almost fell of my seat when I seen the prices though An onboard set up with an air tank would be ideal

That is exactly what I am looking at.

Install the compressor under the bonnet and a 9 litre air tank up the back.

just the single one costs $350ish yeah?

Slightly less think.

I paid about that for the single portable unit in box with hose etc.

I almost fell off my chair at the amp draw under load! 52A!!! Pumping up 35s would be a bit of a strain on my poor alternator that's for sure.

It does look pretty trick though. Have you looked at the Warn compressors? They are also expensive but again, impressive!

Would they have the capacity to reseat a tyre on an alloy rim?

I think if you ran an air tank you possibly could.

I know on the old 255/55/18 road tyres on the disco I could get them to reseat and take air with a super cheap compressor.

Just checked out the Warn compressors.

The specs look good but a very big unit.
