Ferrari Mailing List: Re: Buying Air Compressor - NPC - NFC - NMC - OT

[LarryT (l02turner]

Hi Steve,
Thanks for the info - looked at the Huskys at HD and they really look good. 
I like the
Porter Cable only for it's name brand recognition -

Also saw a Porter Cable at Lowes with the same specs and slightly more $$, 
Itr says it has a 2 Stage Compressor - what does the 2 Stage thingie do for 
you?  Is it  worth the extra money?  It's about $50 more - and I assume it 
runs at a lower speed until more air is needed then it runs faster - is that 
right?

The PC compressor runs at 1725rpm --


Take Care
