Default Re: Tire Inflator/Power Source

I bought the Husky on 12/28 and its nice

EXCEPT

The compressor is real slow and the pressure gauge is the most inaccurate piece of crap I have ever seen.

All else seems well. I would like a compressor that has some power in it but is no bigger then the husky unit.

Anyone have or seen a better compressor which runs on 12V and doesn't cut off after 8 minutes ???

If you dont need the power source,get one of these.You also dont have to store it or lug it around.

That is probably true about the 1050 but how well does it jump start you after you run the battery down using it at the amp draw it has unless you leave the H3 idling or jump a friend hanging on the side of a hill if you have it installed or run any ac accessories. (that is the point, you can't lug it around) Hell what's time to a hog? Four wheeling is suppose to be relaxing. Are you wanting to do NASCAR air ups? Just kidding, life is a compromise! Has anybody melted their fuse box when the 1050 gets up to 300 degrees?

Does the Husky go into shutdown/cool down after 8 minutes..?? Had been considering it, but I don't think 8 minutes of run time would get all 4 tires back up to road pressure from an aired down 20..

Like I said the Husky is nice EXCEPT the compressor part. If you want to bring 4 tires from 20psi up to 40psi you better bring a case of beer along. Yes, 8 to 10 minutes and "POOF", it turns into a pumpkin till it cools down and the gauge takes it up the "hershey highway"

Well I took back the Husky and got the MasterFlow MF 1050.

Boy the compressor is like night and day. The one built into the Husky is "CHIT" ...

I miss the other parts of ther husky but the compressor was the most important thing.
