Twin 24V Viair 333IG's on a 6 gallon pancake. 33" tires.
Decided against fuel/engine-driven air.
Haven't timed anything as I enjoy stretching the ol'e legs during air up. But it doesn't feel slow by any means.
Also keep a Superflow 1050 as failover. (which is slow in comparison)
 
No one running ExtremeAire? would be interested in knowing how it compares to the twin ARB beyond what's on paper.

I keep one of these in my Kiser/Jeep fully charged before I leave the house at all times... I usually jack that side up and about 2 mins I'm done... Also carry plug kits of course...
 
Given there is a direct relationship between amp draw and performance the Extremeaire beats the ARB twin easily.
I was thinking the same thing but the CFM numbers seemed to be close. Maybe I'm reading it wrong but thinking ARB was throwing the numbers. Nothing beats a good ol pump up the 37" tire from 0-30PSI lol.

Im a dealer for Extremeaire and at the end of the day Amps dont lie. IIRC @RFB went from a twin ARB to Extremeaire Magnum.....
 
I started using a DIY CO2 tank setup 20 years ago and it's still my preferred OBA setup. I have both a 10lb tank and a 20lb tank and use them interchangeably. It's simple, incredibly fast for filling tires and portable if I need to assist someone else or use air for other things that aren't on the truck. Most of the time I carry the 10lb tank on my rear bumper. The 10lb tank will typically last 4-5 trips with 2-3 air-ups per day with my 37's. The 20lb tank will usually last me a full spring/summer/fall wheeling season if it's the only tank I'm using and it's only for tire air ups.
I have the tanks filled at a local Carbonic/Dry Ice supplier that is owned by a guy that is also an offroader. $25 to fill my 10lb tank. $40 to fill my 20lb tank.

Oasis Air Compressor. Basically a motor driven York 210 fitted with total seal rings to reduce oil pumping. Picked it up used years ago for $400.
 
Wanted a portable and less expensive solution since I wouldn't be using it as often. Was thinking of the Summit dual air compressor. Looks similar to a Viair. Anyone have experience with this?
