| 2 HP Air Compressor | AccuSet PC2061 | |
 |
by AccuSet  Low amp draw at 14.0 Lightweight and power-packed at just 40 lbs. Pump-up time 55 seconds, recovery time 85 seconds 2.5 hp, 2-gallon tankfound in PC2061's reviews: Very Nice little compressor - This is a great little compressor from Senco's discontinued line of Accuset tools . I like this compressor because of its relatively light weight [39 pds. Most of the bits that would tend to get knocked off during loadind and moving are enclosed in the plastic shrouding around the motor , and the air chuck is sensibly and securly mounted on top so pulling by the air hose shouldn't break it off as has happened with other compressors I've owned . Keeping in mind that it is oil less [which means they use teflon coated rings in stead of an oil bath] I would say it falls in the middle or slightly below for a decible rating of compressors of this type . Only the Thomas industries line of compressors could truly be called quiet from what I've seen. As for qaulity and performance , I had to replace 4 rooms of carpeting about 9 years ago due to a "leak free" oil bath compressor so I switched to these oiless types and have found them to be flawless and I've never looked back. Obviously you wouldn't run a large framing crew with it , then you'd have a gas powered compressor. It still uses a 3450 rpm motor to get the air output/low 14 amp draw . Other machines sometimes have 1750 rpm motors which are quieter but pump less air. |

| 1.5 HP, 2-1/2 Gallon, "Hot Dog" Oil-less Air Compressor | Makita MAC500 | |
 |
by Makita Starts easily under low voltage conditions Built-in thermal overload protection for added safety Dynamically balanced counterweight crankshaft design for reduced vibration Durable cast aluminum components for lighter weight and faster heat dissipation Designed especially for finish workfound in MAC500's reviews: A great portable for small jobs - It keeps up fine for this type of work and is not designed for high volume usage (spray painting, sandblasting, etc) As a blow tool for clearing sawdust in the shop, it struggles to keep up. Even with these drawbacks its a great little compressor for finish carpentry. |
