    Well looks like my air compressor will be for sale shortly! I was just looking in to relocating it so this will work out perfectly!

    I lost track thousands of dollars ago.
    Very cool I like to see if it really can handle constant duty with a impact gun if it does that's bad ass. Someone buy one and right a review quick :D

    ofcourse they can. military grade comps for every application. the filter on top can be routed with air hose to a dry spot higher to suck in air, just like any other comp

    They draw up to 180 Amps so better look into some electrical upgrades while you're installing one of those! Pretty powerful for a 12V vehicle mount though.

    Maybe the price on the older Heavy duty will go down?

    For 45 more bucks someone could have my entire setup! :D

    Me likey! Looks like that will probably be my future OBA setup. ARBs are just great quality but til now I didnt think they pushed enough air for my liking.

    You could plumb in a tank if you wanted to. The new compressor is 100% duty cycle and has some decent flow rates that accommodate air tools so I don't see a tank as necessary.

    I know I've got my change jar set aside for it!

    I was looking to get the Viair portable compressor that is 100% duty cycle. So not sure which one would be better.

    How many Viair compressors are you running together to get as much airflow as this ARB unit? 2 or 3?
