Holy Cow--It Is The Mirror Image June 5, 2008 This compressor is the spitting mirror image of the Hitachi EC-12 two-horse Oiled Twin Hot Dog four gallon, 65 pound Portable Compressor. I do not own this unit, but if it IS a twin to my Hitachi Hitachi EC12 14.5 Amp 2 Horsepower 4 Gallon Oiled Twin Hot Dog Compressor , this should be a very good compressor with 4+ SCFM @ 90 psi. My question of this unit, as on the Hitachi, is to locate the check valve body and learn how to replace the check valve poppet, a neoprene piece that seals the pressure in the tank so that it does not pressurize the outlet of the pump after it shuts down. That pressure would prevent the restart of the pump and result in blown breakers. The Hitachi poppets can be obtained for about $7, and they harden with stress & air pollution and can result in the tank mysteriously draining the air on shutdown after about 4 or 5 years. (I searched online & found IR DD2T2 check valve assembly for $48--unknown if rebuildable--suggest you check locally for parts.) I hope my experience elsewhere can help someone here. I also use a simple 2 gal auxiliary remote airtank on a 3/8" X 50-to-100 ft hose so I don't have to carry the compressor and use long extension cords. See my reviews.
Best little compressor in town. June 5, 2008 Running several framing crews with larger units, we always have a need for smaller units for punchout work. Impulse units simply cost too much to operate on site all day (do the math).
Setting the unit up you can easily run 2, even more nailers on this pump. The pump size and volume is what is important not just the size of the tank. It does no good to have a 60 gallon tank if it take an hour to recover (had this proplem with other smaller pumps like Bostage).
All said and done great little pump very dependable unit. My oldest one is 8 years old.

Received compressor with a broken gauge. Called the parts and service department and received a new gauge with next day delivery. Compressor works great!
A good one! July 28, 2007 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
Bought one of those about 6 months ago.
I considered the oil-lubed Porter Cable job boss before, my friend has one of those and I used it many times before, but the IR compressor is much quieter and a little bit lighter (makes a difference when loading and unloading from the truck). On the other hand, the wheels on the PC unit make it better if you need to carry it to some distance (which I normally don't need to do).
Used mine mainly with my nailers (framing, finish and brad) but also with some high speed die grinders and polishers. While it does a fine job with the nailers it obviously isn't made to generate enough CFM for continous grinding and does need to recover every 30 seconds or so for a few seconds. Whenever I used it with a grinder it would be running for lengths of time with no complaints at all.
It worked flawlessly until some bastard decided to steal it from my job site, I'm going to buy another one of those without a second thoght.
HTH!
