Default Almost complete victory over the compressor

Make sure you have good supply voltage. Compressors really don't
like extension cords of any description.

It depends on what your input voltage is. The higher the volts,
the
smaller the amps.

a 5 amp difference is negligible in the grand scheme of things


I am just worried about the motor overheating. Anyway, I will
give it
a little more play and will see how it goes, but I am very
hopeful.
