Morrflate Ten-Six air compressor

[FstFrd00]

I am NOT affiliated with morrflate.
You can find the tech specs online.
I aired down my sasquatch to 15psi.
I aired up, all 4 35s at once, to 38psi. I have the DIY version of the Morrflate Quad
It took ~10 minutes.
It was warm at the end but cool enough to handle.
It wasn't very loud. It was about as loud as the 2.7 with the hood open.
All in all, I'm pleased.

I have the Maxi Trac compressor, which looks identical to this one, and it filled all 4 of my 33" tires with my DIY 4 tire hose system from 25psi to 39psi in about 4 minutes. It is quieter than I expected and performed great. I don't know how long term performance will be, but for ~$100 it doesn't matter a whole lot.

Both look like good options for portable compressors, and are probably identical, but different colors.

I'm making my own 4-tire inflator/deflator - saving at least fifty bucks. Just waiting for Amazon to deliver the parts.

I went with a SmittyBilt 2780 air compressor which is NOT currently back ordered like the one in your link. Also less expensive.

I had to watch a lot of YouTube videos to get it all figured out.

Looks like the morrflate branded one has psi cutoff. I’ve seen a few rebrandings of this same cheap compressor. Some have the cutoff, the napa maxi trac does not. Given the poor wiring in the maxi, I would definitely open it up and double check before trusting it

That one was a special promotional item and is no longer available through NAPA. You can buy the same one from Belkamp, but for about twice as much.

I saw a post where someone hooked up a pressure switch on the output. What is the concern, over inflating the tires? Should I be worried about not having a pressure cutoff or pressure switch?

If you're going to start up the compressor and walk away maybe. I plan to be watching the whole time, so I don't see the point of having a cutoff switch.

Same here, I frequently check the pressure gauge and stay at the vehicle.

Without the cutoff switch you need to turn off the compressor when not inflating, as obviously it will not shut itself off and blow your hose or nuke itself.

You make it sound like flipping a switch on the air compressor is difficult. It's not.

Nice, I was actually deciding between them and https://www.speedflate.com/shop/air-systems as an inflate/deflate system. I ended up going with speedflate because I wanted to use the Viair system for its reliability.

I didn't say flipping a switch is difficult, learn to read. The question was asked what is the purpose of a pressure switch.

 

[FstFrd00]

another positive; I didn't have to change out any of my 1/4 air fittings

I watched the video and ordered the parts and modified the Napa Maxi Trac compressor I bought on sale for $89. I added the quick connect and the pressure shut off switch. When I took the cover off of my compressor the wiring was fine.

We just got back from spending some time at the Outer Banks and I aired down to 17 psi to drive on Corolla Beach to Cordova and saw some of the wild horses.

The Maxi Trac compressor with my mods for the pressure switch worked like a charm and aired right back up from 17psi to 39psi in about 2 mins per tire. All in I’m only @ $120 including mods so sure beats the price of a dual ARB compressor! Here’s a pic:

And here’s a link to the YouTube video instructions how to modify:

The maxitrac is back in stock at napa for those waiting for one.
