Am looking at purchasing a lightweight portable air compressor. Have looked at 2 and curious if there is any feedback.
Primary use at the present time is for blowing off face mask, blowing out dust, etc.
Looked at the Husky Easy-Air Compressor for Home Deport @$99.00. 24lb, 135 psi, 1.5 gal.
Also looked at the Senco PC0947/FP18Kit from Woodcraft $199.00(Local store for me). This includes a 18 gage brad nailer 5/" - 2" brads. Not sure of the HP. Woodcraft says 1hp as an article on line says 1/2hp. 1 gal compacity Currently do not have a compressor or nailer. There was an article on Woodworking-forum that confirms the quietness of this as a hum (like virbrating hair clippers). Noise is also important to me as I will be using in the cellar where my workshop is.
