Looks like it would be easy to mount, and the price is right. Anybody pulled one of these apart yet?

Pretty cheap way to get a resovoir tanks, gauge, air line and fittings to pull to bits and use with a proper 12V compressor - I am off to get one now...

Also, this might sound insane, but I wander if the shaft could be belt driven through some sort of re-gearing device off the engine? (not to be permanently connected of course)
