Looking for a new jumper starter and air compressor kit
« on: January 26, 2021, 04:24:36 PM »
Hello everyone,

Looking for a new air compressor kit and a new battery just per starter.

Would love any feedback on different models that people are using?
Should I buy separate units or a unit with both in one?

Love to hear from you.

Hello,
No budget allocated yet, just wanted to get something that would be great for all occasions.

Fixed in car/portable?

My preference

permanently mounted air compressor (ARB Twin) for airing up and adjusting suspension

Small lithium jump start pack than fit in your hand

I agree. I’d also consider  the portable arb unit if I had more than one vehicle.

Hi,
    The ARB compressor in a box seems easy enough to pull out to make a fixed setup if wanted.
Cheers

I have one of these, can't speak highly enough of them.. A bit $$'s but well worth it!!!

I would definitely go separate units. My compressor is portable and under $300.
I have a small hand held lithium jump pack that was about $200 and works great, but needs a charge every 3 months or so just to make sure it’s fully charged in an emergency.
I have tried various versions of the super cheap type jump packs and they are junk
