Top Hand Carry Hot Dog Air Compressors
Maybe the preferred air compressors are the hand carry ‘hot dog’ compressors. They are often known as hot dog compressors because of their sole tank designed just like a hot dog. These models are ideal for home owner tasks such as inflating tires or inflatable toys, operating an air-nailer or stapler, along with painting. These types all operate on a typical 120V power supply.
Here are a few technical specs you ought to have a look at when examining air compressors. The most important of which is air flow measured in CFM, or cubic feet per minute, at 90 PSI. In order to use your air tools, your compressor requires an air flow amount greater than what your tool needs. Additional features to think about include the size and portability, the noise, and tank size. Possibly one of the leading complaints pertaining to compressors is how noisy they can be, but some manufacturers build products which are fairly quiet.
We are going to check out several of the top rated air compressors. The ratings were accumulated by looking at the specs along with real user rankings.
The Makita MAC700 is our top rated hot dog air compressor which has an 8.8 overall rating. This machine boasts solid overall performance with 3.3 CFM @ 90 PSI, 130 max PSI, and 2.6 gallon tank volume. Another plus is its low amp draw, which means reduced breaker trips. Its sound is rated at 80 db which is about ordinary compared to other models, yet not as silent as some. The cost for this product is about $200.
The next highest rated hot dog variety would be the Senco PC1130 with an 8.6 overall rating. The PC1130 offers high performance with 3.5 CFM @ 90 PSI, 125 max PSI, and 2.5 gallon tank capacity. It’s moderately light-weight at 39 pounds and at 69 decibels is among the quietest compressors you can purchase. This piece runs about $160.
The third model on this overview is the Bostitch CAP1512-OF coming in at a ranking of 8.2 overall. This compressor is definitely one of the lightest on the market at 23.5 lbs, allowing it to be easily transportable. It delivers fine capability of 2.8 CFM @ 90 PSI with a max PSI of 150 and tank capacity of 1.2 gallons. One more positive characteristic is the noise level of 72 db which is significantly quieter than average. The projected price is close to $150.
