Warn Air Compressor

Warn was displaying their new line of 12V air compressors at a trade show I attended this past weekend. They look like really nice kits. I've always sorely lacked an air compressor. I loath popping quarters or being the, "Dude, can I bum some air?" guy. What do you guys think?

:punk03: "Dude, can I bum some air?"

Holy mackeral...have you checked the price on those....$600...you could put together a nice OBA system for that.

Both models are pictured at the top, but its hard to tell because the VTC is shown from the side.

I see that now...

I wonder what they weigh, too.

Maximus, is that MSRP, or a vendor price?

I have the VTC, it's awesome. I'm in the process of mounting it under my rig, and I'll be plumbing it like an OBA system to the front & rear. I just used it yesterday to air up my 38's, ran it hard as I filled all 4 nonstop.

I've also used it to run a 1/2" impact, and it works great, even though it only runs @ 100psi.

I already mounted it, so I don't have the exact measurements. Try the Warn website, they should have the specs there.

I'm sure you already have something living in this area, but I'll show you what I did. I'll have more photos next week once e-thing is done & installed.

The compressor mounts to this skidplate along with the H2O tank....

Wow, the VTC has terrific specs! Nearly 600 litres per minute free flow, falling to over 226 L/min @ 620kPa! That's as good or better as most OBA engine-driven compressors. It's a pity it maxes out at 700kPa (100p.s.i), although that is enough for almost everything.

(I presume that air-flow specifications are always a measure of air volume at atmospheric pressure? i.e. 226 litres/minute @ 620kPa is 226 litres at atmospheric pressure, or about 36 litres @ the full 620kPa).
