    Big Red 12v Compressor

    I'm after some real world experience with this 12v compressor, has anyone here got one and if so, what do think of it.

    Had one for a few years now. I have it mounted in engine bay, and run sockets front and rear for air to tyres and trailer etc, also use it with a small tank, to support LOUD air horns for a very long toot if required. Works a treat. May not be the quickest at pumping up flat tyres, but it seems to do it without complaint.

    Depends what you are using the compressor for. It will pay to check out the duty cycle, as some have a limited run time before they shutdown to avoid overheating, whereas others are unlimited, such as the Bluetongue.

    I think Big reds are made by York in the US,
    same people as make the Blue tounge.
    The top 2 I was going to get, but now getting a Boss, 100% duty.
    made for air bags
    wait for the $$$ to come in $350.
