Would this be able to fill a 2 gallon on board air tank to 150psi, as a budget replacement for a VIVAIR compressor, used to power an air horn?

The pressure gauge used to both read the pressure, and set the maximum pressure, has a max setting of 150psi. The trip needle would probably make it cut out at 148ish. So in theory it should be capable of this pressure.FYI the compressor is fairly slow. I used it on a tire with 20 psi, it took about 3 minutes to fill it to 35 psi.

I have run a framing nailer from this compressor. Sometimes I would have to wait for the compressor to "catch-up" but certainly useable. Not sure a professional builder wouldn't want a bigger tank. I would not attempt to run 2 of them at once. Check the framing nailer manual for the CFM and PSI requirements.

It will be much faster than most compressors, short of running something with a large 30gallon tank that is already charged and ready to go. It is about the best you will get in something fairly portable.

Depends on how fast one works it. I've been using it on the regular 5 gallon apprx. 4 scfm at 90 psi compressor just fine. You may consider upgrading your air supply if you have more than one guy shooting.

Do not think this will work well for air tools that use lots of air like impact wrenches. For those tools you need a large volume tank. I only use this one for putting air in my motor home tires because it will go to 150psi.

Also look at the ratings for the compressor if if is less than 1 amp it might work, but I really do not think so as there would also be a surge as the compressor started.

Yes will work because I am useing it with ARB compressor with 150 psi of pressure

The tank fills to 200psi. As I use the air the compressor turns on to refill to 200psi. I have not watched to see what pressure it allows to get down to before refilling. So far I have only used it for hardwood floors. It Is a great compressor so far and very quiet.

No. As previously stated, even the very best garage type of compressor only gets up to maybe 500PSI. So options are: special hand pump $120-300, scuba tank with adapter (used $150, new $250), paint ball tanks with adapters ($200-up), special carbon fiber 4500psi tanks for PC rifles ($300-way up), Used SCBA carbon fiber fireman tank with adapters ($200+) which is what I did (actually finished around $120, but I got lucky and built the stainless adapter myself). BUT, once you have an air source, you have almost unlimited, dirt cheap, super accurate shooting fun!

Yes, it has been a good compressor for me. I use it for pneumatic nailers, it has a 2 gallon tank which would be excellent for bike tires, it may run a little but ive fill my car tires with it.

probably, but it will be dirty air vs the clean air you receive from SCUBA shops. Why not just regulate the output down to 150-200 with a second regulator? There is also a "shoe box" sold that allows you to use a regular shop air compressor to completely fill a high pressure tank.

I found it on the Lotos web site in the manual. The CFM requirement is only 3.8. @ 66 PSI. A small compressor should do the job. Tank size will not matter if you have at least these specs.

I think you have to have a tank to run air tools. I can't remember the recommended size look at the tanks on regular air compressors. The 400P is only the compressor motor not the tank. You can get Viair kits that include tanks, installation is trickier and vehicle specific usually.

The manual requires 80 - 100 psi. I am running this on a large compressor, but I see no reason why the tank you are looking at wouldn't work. My BOSTITCH PN50 Mini Impact Nailer can drive a 3-1/2" hot dipped deck framing nail into a 6"x6" post in less than 2 seconds. Don't know how I got along without it.

Yes. That is the reason I bought this. I didnt have the space for a 220 compressor that was going to be used to run a DA. This machine was more than an adequate substitute.

I have a DeWalt Emglo 4.5 gal. 5.4 scfm compressor that will go to 200 psi in the tanks. It is on wheels and works great!

It will work, but the LOUD compressor will come on every few nails. For a medium sized project, a 3-6 gallon tank would be better.
