Re: Compressor choices

Added an additional 30gal of capacity to the 30gal single stage on my setup 3 weeks ago. I had seen vids of people modding their compressors, and the one that really caught my eye was the cooler with a water separator. Used a Derale 15300 cooler and a cheap Walmart 12" fan to blow across thats wired to come on when running. Amazing how it cools the hot air. Can barely touch the tube out of the compressor before the cooler, but very cool after. Creates an atmosphere to create moisture to get trapped by the separator. Painted a week ago without issue in 100*F. Love it. Might just replace the compressor head when it fails...one of these days.
BTW. 110v 2HP. Small, but works.
