    Mate depending on how much the compeessor runs througout the day your gonna need plenty of amp hr unless you run the car, compressors can suck alot of amps how long do you run it for ?

    @ SD don't know your driving style but you think tank is OK for ramp over angle.
    Love the led lighting, take it they are only led strip lights?
    Awesome times to inflate but no time for mandatory beer during air up, lol

    Edit @ mega anything up to 65 amp maybe more ,

    Sca don't say what amps/ @ psi. Draw the compressor is so you may need to test it if you want a fair idea of what your going to use.

    I'm always keeping an eye on my battery's. The compressors I am running are big and these two together are as good as my belt driven one in my workshop.

    I should have seen this, I cant do it this way because it physically will join the wiring for both batteries . I would love some input here, the only way I can see out of this is if I go ahead and add the third battery now.

    Not sure who is following but after some thought I pulled the Dual battery switch/isolator apart and worked out the contact points and filed down the part where the switch makes contact joining the batterys.











    So from the Common it only able to select ether source 1 or 2 no 1+2.
