Excellent portable compressor - Inflates faster then any other 12v cigarette lighter powered compressor I've used while also being quieter and with less vibration. The only minor annoyance is the air hose must be detached to store in the supplied storage bag and reattached prior to each use.

found in T-635HD's reviews:
Light weight professional grade compressor for small jobs - I was looking for a portable and not overly loud air compressor, for my low air-volume tools. I had a 4-gallon pancake compressor for several years, but at 70 lbs. -- much more portable than the pancake unit.

My third attempt at a portable was the winner. Although it hardly qualifies as "quiet", it isn't nearly as noisy as other compressors I've heard. I installed a 16" stainless steel braided faucet plumbing hose on the compressor's air-outlet port; routed the hose out the back under the motor support, and screwed on a quick disconnect coupling. Because the tank is only 2 gallons (to keep weight/bulk down), the pump comes on more often than on larger units, but when it does, it's only on for about 12 seconds (if you're not using air). Translation: the compressor can be used continuously, without letup. Some compressors have only a 50% duty cycle, which means you shouldn't run it more than 30 minutes for every hour used, as that could cause excessive wear on the pump and/or motor.

You'd want a bigger unit if you had two roofing or stud-nailers going, but for low-air-volume requirements such as trim work, this little Thomas unit is just about perfect. If you can afford the best and need a truly portable machine, this is it.

September 2006 update:

While working on a home renovation project, the compressor's low air pressure switch clicked, but the motor didn't start. By the time I got to the compressor, the motor was smoking, literally.

Good for Starting Fires - First time and only time I used it was to inflate a motorcycle
tire. The bike was idle for 2 years and had 10 pounds in the
tire. Had to hold it against
the tire with my foot so it wouldn't flip over from jumping
around.

I connected it for about 30 seconds, then tested
pressure with a tire gauge.
I figured I let it run for a few minutes while squeezing and
watching the tire carefully.

Slow but reliable - Got tired of local gas stations with broken air pumps, so I got this little dude. It took about 3 minutes per tire to inflate from 26 to 32 psi on my car.
GREAT IDEA - WHAT A GREAT IDEA, IT IS PORTABLE, LITE, EASY TO USE,A GREAT GIFT.
THIS CAN BE USED IN MOTOR HOME, ON A BOAT, TAKE IT WITH YOU WHEN YOU GO CAMPING, COULD BE USED FOR AIRING UP AIR MATTERESS, WATER TOYS, FLAT TIRES, BEACH BALL.
