I'll admit I'm a Power Tank fan. Remembering to fill it isn't really an issue. I use mine regularly and I fill it up maybe 2x a year.
As far as comparing a Power Tank to a homebuilt kit, there is no comparison. The bottles, the hoses, the fittings and especially the regulators aren't even close. The regulator is the key to the whole system and theirs are the best.
Nice review.
PS Can you run tools off a compressor? I run an impact and sometimes a cutting wheel off my Power Tank and I like having that option.
How do you keep the lines from freezing running air tools?
My biggest problem/complaint when I was using a Power tank was running out of air. You can only air up large tires so many times when on a trip and then you are #%^&@!
I now run air tools off my PUMA with a 100% duty cycle. I do need to wait to catch up but it never quits producing air.
