    Has anyone used the TJM portable compressor? These are Australian made. The price seems attractive at $109.00 If so, any comments?

    I changed some lights, tires and tinted windows...mind blowing huh
    for that price, it would be hard to pass. My dad was looking at a compressor for his RV and the things were stupid expensive compared to this.

    Bought one two years ago at Lowes for half that price still works to this day. Use it a few times a week (slow leak in daily driver I haven't bothered with.) There's probably ones out there that inflate quicker but it gets the job done. Don't recall the make right this second.

    found a compressor on sale for Canadian $79.99, took it home, checked 4Runner tire pressure, 3-4 lbs low all around. This compressor topped up to recommended tire pressure on Goodyear Wranglers in less than 2 minutes/tire. Comes in a case. Electric cable and hose plenty long to reach all tires. Surprisingly quiet. Came with extra in line fuse, and tips for filling balls and air mattresses etc. Built in digital pressure gauge reads high during filling so have to fill to about 4 lbs high. Also has a LED light on front for using if dark. When shut off, it reads to tire pressure. Comes in a nice case for storage.
