can this unit be used at least 16 hours in open position under very low pressure. less than 2 psi if not please refer me to another that will. thanks

I really don't see any reason why it would not work mine stays in the open position for 6 to 8 hours at a time and it works great

We have used our for a week at a time several times when the grandkids visit. It maintained its air pressure quite well during that week. I see no reason it could not be used longer periods. If the air pressure dropped, you could always re inflate it as needed. We found ours to be quite comfortable and bought a second one for our winter home to use when two sets of friends visit at the same time.

I don't own this model but I do own something similar, & I can tell you that compressors such as this can NOT be run on their sides. Mine can be run at a 35 degree angle for up to 4 hours, and that is considered a bonus feature. Normally, compressors need to be level & if they are shipped on their side, you should set them upright for 8-12 hours to let the oils drain *before* turning them on. I assure you, if you set this on its side & turn it on, you will burn out the compressor very quickly. DO NOT listen to these other reviewers answers, they have no idea what they are talking about & I am surprised that nobody has answered this correctly yet.

Depends on how low. My pressure is pretty low as well about 40-45 psi and still works great!

You should be fine. The first numbered level is 30psi but there are plently of levels below that. I often use 20 psi for model paint and I could go lowers. It's a good unit.

Not sure about 40 psi, at that pressure I would think it would still work but maybe not as quickly. I use it at home with around 80-90 psi. Hope that helps, it is a great product and no more waiting in long lines at the campgound.

you don't want to use it more than 30 minutes. It is extremely nosey. It is like a 12 volt air compressor.

It uses very low PSI 25-35 depending on your needs. I have a similar compressor and it is more then adequate. It is very easy to clean and does excellent work.

I have medium to low pressure and have two connected and have no problem. I also turn it up a little higher when the pressure is lower. They work great. Hope this helps

I donor know the answer to any, but I have it now for 8 years, never has any problems, working as good as it did the first day. Would highly recommend. I believe it is not dual pressure.

The instructions say that it's for use "only with pressure of 60 psi max". So anything less than that would probably work. I keep my house at 70-80 psi, and it also seems to work fine at those higher pressures.

You can adjust it as low as you want. As far as psi, I have no clue, but the adjustment is very fine meaning you have nice control over the flow, not like some where it's more of an on/off switch.

It works just fine. I like the long tip for getting into small spaces (i.e. computer parts). As far as preasure, i use it with a small compressor that can only put out 125 PSI so I am not sure what the maximum pressure could be.
1628652
under normal operation 2-3 psi and 5-7 hard running. i set my idle pressure at about 18 psi so it never drops below 11-12 psi. from what i read anything above 10 psi is safe for primaries. i dont know how high you can safely set it but i havent had any failures yet. hope that helps. note: i am using an edge guage system so the pressure drops are seen digitally on screen and measured from primary, correct or not.

This unit produces too much steam, in my opinion, to steam clothes. We use this wonderful little unit for small jobs, a big steamer for large jobs, and a dedicated clothes steamer on clothes. I have no idea how to reduce the pressure of this steamer to a level where it wouldn't blow your clothes into another room. Maybe you could get away with holding the tool about 2 feet from the garment. Who knows?

I am not sure it can restart when pressure drop below setting; I did not tried that.

Honestly, I haven't used it yet. I'm keeping it for the purpose of an emergency fix when I need it. I would contact the company and ask them how many psi line it will support. good luck.
