I have one and im very very happy with it.Pumps my standerd tyres in 30 sec each(19psi to 32psi).It's a heavy solid unit and well built for the price.

I paid 140 deliverd to my door and the seller is excellent to deal with.

Get a power air series 2 from bcf for $99. Unlike the ebay trash, it wont blow up. Use mine heaps over the last 2 years, 12 tyres at a time, still no problems.

Yep thats the one, top unit. Not to sure about the tank, if you can do it with other compressors I dont see why not? Im always surprised to hear people spending hundreds on compressors, only advantage I can see is that they are faster. Just means I can finish a full stubby by the time my tyres are pumped up where as they dont :P
