Not sure what you mean by that. The water sits in a tank, the disc dips
into the water for lubrication, cooling and a muddy shower for the
operator. Do other tile saws need a runing water supply?

Does the compact not have a drain? Do you just turn it upside down
when finished?

Yes, but you need to give it a good wash to get rid of the sludge so I
don't see a drain being a great advantage.

I presume the bigger disc lasts a little longer?

Might be false. How long a disc lasts depends on how deep the diamond
edging to the disc is. The bigger one might be going faster (in linear
terms) than the smaller one, thus may wear quicker. All other things
being equal, like the material being cut.

On some the water from the tank is lost once 'used'. Certain versions of
the Plasplugs have a drain channel round the outside of the bed which
returns most of the water to the tank.
