If you travel on the road, you might need an air compressor at some point. In this video we talk about about why you might need an air compressor, how it has helped us during our travels in our RV, other accesories that might be needed in order to use one, how we use the one we have, and we even do a test to see how loud the compressor actually is. We also show you how our tire pressure monitoring system works.
Don't get caught in a situation, not being able to fill up your tires, especially if you are driving an RV or hauling something heavy, like an RV. That can be very dangerous and expensive.
We like this air compressor because it is very quiet, easy to use, oil free (doesn't require much maintenance), and relatively lightweight.
