Default air compressors

Other than the HP rating, I can't see a difference. I think the
CPLKC7080V2 might be an older version. It's not listed on the porter
cable website. Does anyone have either of these?

Also any opinions of the maxus compressors on amazon? I've never heard
of them. But maybe they're made in the same chinese factories as the
PCs?



I see aluminum on the pump. Personally I would go for an Ingersoll-Rand, a
very well respected brand that has been in the business for years.

For about $10 more you can get the IR shipped for free with equal to better
specs performance and cast iron cylinders and a smaller motor and slightly
smaller tank. That said it is rated for continuous duty, IIRC the PC does
not mention that.

Look Here.
