Two main benefits of a tank:
(1) it contains enough air to rapidly inflate 1 tyre, this is especially nice if you have a flat on a busy road and don't want to change it then and there, you can leave fast to get to a safer place. A woman was recently killed on the freeway near Adelaide while waiting for her son to come and change her flat, a truck rammed her just before he arrived. I like the idea of getting off the slip lane quickly.
(2) you can get to run a real horn, one of those chrome trumpet things, I had one in my old P76. When approaching mobile hamburgers in the Riverina, if you tweet like a Corolla they ignore you, honk like a Mack and they jump out of the way!

did a test on the weekend on the ebay special compressor.
I connected it up to my little portable compressor tank and let it blast.
a little dissapointed with the results: (maybe I shouldn't be?)
I let it run for 5minutes. it managed to get the 30litre tank up to 50psi.
the first ~30psi went pretty quick and after that it started to struggle.
it'll do okay for this trip, until I can sort out propper air
oh I also picked up an inline oiler for experiments in the near future
- all depending on which compressir I am able to get (and fit)

Fit it up to the exhaust instead...I saw a train horn for sale at a swap meet recently

Just found two York AC compressors at the local wreckers.
Both on early Range Rovers as chance would have it.
$50 each.
I am keeping one so If anyone out there wants the other let me know and for the cost of postage and half a dozen cold stubbies I'll grab it.
RoverLord
any chance of getting you to go back and purchase the brackets as well.
Happy to lay on dollars for the parts/transport and help out with setting up your tank in exchange for the efforts
