hello there

please i need help to buy an air compressor . i use vls 4.60 and i have already a compressor but its too noisy . i`m searching for silent one with 220 volt . i saw one yesterday 114 psi 6 gallon oilless is it work ok with me ? what is your suggestions?

That one won't be quiet either. The most silent are the better airbrush pumps, they run all the time with no tank, and only put out 25-40 lbs. but I use one on my laser and it's quieter than the exhaust fan or laser itself.

From quietest to loudest - diaphram (airbrush type) - oil bath - oil-less. Oil-less are the very worst!

Since the laser only needs 10 pounds of pressure, you can use a small airbrush compressor. The absolute quietest ones (47 db) are used for nail salons and bakery decorating. They are tiny (the size of a brick) and cheap enough ($50) to buy a new one every year if you have to. Mine seem to last about 2 - 3 years of daily use before they lose pressure. I complained about the pressure once and got a new one for free, because they said it was under a 2 year warranty, even though it was over two years old..

cheers, dee

Andrew,

I got mine from Tri-City Paint (they have a website). It's called a Mini Air Compressor, piston type, oil-less. Model TC-18. I paid 44.99 plus shipping for $10. Really you can't go wrong if you only need a little bit of air. It's not good enough for other applications, but 47 db is about half the lowest loudness I could find elsewhere.

cheers, dee
