Wilmar W10005 5-Gallon Portable Air Tank

• 125 maximum psi
• Light-weight portable with handle for easy transport
• On/off air adjustment dial
• Industrial grade air hose with standard tire air chuck
• Hi-viz color for added visibility

I bought this Wilmar 5 gallon tank even though the other reviewers complained about the hose. I intended to immediately remove it, anyway, and install a quick-disconnect, such as I have on my air compressor. I did so, and it works fine.

The tank didn't hold air (100psi)the first night I had it. The next morning I found that it had a loose valve core, which is just like the type one finds in auto tire valve stems.(This is the point at which one fills the tank with a tire-type air-filler attachment.) I had a valve core wrench, so didn't have to buy one, and tightened it. So much for the leak. Holds air fine, now.

So, I spent $30.16 for the tank (free shipping), installed a QD that I had on-hand, but maybe costs $5.00, and tightened the valve core (wrench costs maybe $1.50). $6.50 is still less than what shipping would have been.

So, not a bad investment for a set-up that works, and that I like and use.

Got one of these as gift..filled tank fine,but could not fill tire from it. Took it back to store (Tractor Supply)was on sale for ~$15.00. They were very nice about it, said they had problems with these. Tried 4 more and never got one to work satisfactorily. Don't want something NEW that I have to modify to get it to work.......MADE IN CHINA....

When I tried to fill the tank for the first time, it would not accept any air. I took the valve apart and was very surprised to see there was no hole for the air to enter the tank; it was a sealed piece of pipe with a schrader valve at one end. A friend with a drill press cut a hole for me so at least it now works. Since this was obviously a missed step in the machining process, it makes me wonder how many of these defective tanks are out there ...

I would not recommend this product to anyone.

The tank works like it should except for the pressure gauge. It sticks constantly. I expected more even though it was not expensive.

ETQ IN3500I 3,500 Watt 149.5cc 4-Stroke Gas Powered Portable Inverter Generator

I purchased this generator in February 2010. I tried to use it six times during the summer for a small air conditioner. It lost it's ignition spark and will not start. I took it to a factory authorized repair shop and they found the manufacturer does not have replacement parts for it. I am out $849.99, with a generator that cannot be repaired and would not recomend anyone purchase this generator. I am very disappointed Amazon has it for sale under these circumstances.

The ETQ invertor/generator that we purchased works very well. It took a few pulls of the starter for the initial startup, but subsequent startups are quick and easy. It has good reserve wattage for most applications that we use it for. It will run a 10,000btu combination portable A/C-Heater and start a 2hp small air compressor and run it. It is slightly more noisy than the 2KW Honda, but it is 1KW more output and one third the price. It is a good product for now, we just have to wait and see how long it lasts.

Can't beat the price but you can definitely hear the difference btwn this product and high dollar high quality products. The Amazon ad says 60db noise level but when it arrived, the product specs say 60-65db. Remember each 3db DOUBLES the noise level! Heavy but the smooth handle and case make it not to difficult to lug around a short distance. Took many pulls to get it started the first time and it died the first time I started the camper 13500BTU A/C unit but the gen was in ECO mode (auto throttle mode). After that I run it in normal mode when I want to run the A/C. The RPMs oscillate in ECO mode under minimal load which does not inspire confidence in quality. Wondering how many seasons I'll get out of it.

Update: 2 years later and it still works. I've mistreated it by leaving gas in it for long periods of time. I just pop the carb off, disassemble it, and do a thorough cleaning and she fires right back up again. some of the plastic covers tend to pop off occasionally when I'm moving it around but that doesn't effect the performance. I've upgraded my rating to 4 stars because of the reliability.

I bought this unit to run my 15000 BTU AC in my travel trailer. Got the unit in and was very excited to give it a try. I was soon disapointed to find out that it would not start the AC. I had been told that a 3000 watt gen would do this but this unit would not no matter what I tried. I then got a friend to bring his 2800 watt unit of a different brand. It would start the AC just fine. I ended up buying a Yamaha 3000 watt which does the job great. I wish this little unit would have worked because it is half the weight of the yamaha. It is still a good little gen but just doesnt have the umph to start bigger items. It is also not load but it is a little noisy compared to the Yamaha.

EASTERN TOOL GENERATOR MODEL IN-3500I

I WAS IMMEDIATELY ATTRACTED TO THIS GENERATOR FOR ITS COMPACT SIZE, LOW NOISE ATTRIBUTES AND PRICE TAG. IT MIMICKS THE YAMAHA GENERATORS IN COLOR AND I'M CERTAIN, BY NO COINCIDENCE. I RECEIVED THIS ITEM QUITE QUICKLY FROM AMAZON AS IT IS A RATHER LARGE AND HEAVY PACKAGE. I READ THE ENTIRE MANUAL BEFORE ADDING GAS OR OIL AND BECAME VERY FAMILIAR WITH ITS RUNNING PROCESS.

AFTER ADDING GAS AND OIL I SPENT OVER 1 HOUR TRYING TO GET THIS GENERATOR RUNNING. IT WOULD START FOR ABOUT 20 SECONDS AND THEN JUST QUIT. IT WAS AS THOUGH THE UNIT WAS GETTING TOO MUCH GAS OR NOT ENOUGH. I TRIED EVERY COMBINATION WITH THE CHOKE LEVER, FUEL COCK POSITIONS AND SO ON, WITH NO LUCK. IN THE PROCESS OF TRYING TO START THIS GENERATOR I ALSO NOTICED IN ITS POOR DESIGN THAT THE PULL STARTER RUBBED A 1" BURN INTO THE PLASTIC. THIS OCCURRED BECAUSE THE DESIGN IS SUCH THAT YOU PULL THE STARTER CORD UPWARDS FROM A LATERAL POSITION ON THE UNIT AND THE STRING ALWAYS RUBS THE PLASTIC. AFTER ENOUGH FRICTION IT BURNS A RATHER LARGE LINE INTO THE PLASTIC. THE REMEDY FOR THIS WOULD BE TO START THIS DEVICE ON A TABLE OR DEVICE THAT PUTS THE GENERATOR AT LEVEL WITH YOUR ARM WHICH IS JUST PLAIN RIDICULOUS UNLESS YOUR RUNNING IT IN THE BED OF A TRUCK. THE STARTER CORD SHOULD HAVE BEEN PLACED SO THAT YOU PULL UPWARDS.

BY BIGGEST COMPLAINT HOWEVER HAS BEEN THE LACK OF ANY KIND OF RESPONSE FROM EASTERN TOOL COMPANY WHO BUILDS THIS "ALL SIZZLE BUT NO STEAK" GENERATOR AFTER SENDING 2 EMAILS CONCERNING THE STARTING PROBLEM. I DONT CARE SO MUCH THAT THIS UNIT HAS A RUNNING PROBLEM AS MUCH AS I AM DISAPPOINTED THAT I HAVEN'T HEARD ANY RESPONSE FROM THE COMPANY WHO BUILT IT. I WILL TRY AGAIN ONE MORE TIME TO CONTACT THEM AND THEN I'LL JUST TAKE IT TO A SMALL ENGINE REPAIR SHOP. I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND THIS PRODUCT TO ANYONE AND I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND THIS COMPANY AND ITS OTHER PRODUCTS EITHER. MY ADVICE: SPEND THE EXTRA MONEY AND GET A TIME TESTED AND PROVEN PRODUCT FROM YAMAHA, HONDA OR OTHER...

Campbell Hausfeld HV2500 58 CFM Fine Finish HVLP Paint Sprayer

• HVLP fine finish paint sprayer with 2-stage tangential turbine and 2 air filters
• Sprays light, medium, heavy-stains, varnishes, oil-based paint, and latex
• Durable metal body, plastic hose
• Includes spray gun, 25-foot hose, 2 needle/nozzle sets, wrench, viscosity stick, strainers, cleaning brush
• 12-1/2 by 22-1/2 by 12-1/2 inches; 32 pounds; 3-year limited warranty

I've had this unit for a couple of years now...and in short it's priced fairly. Not too great but not too bad. It got me started with HVLP. It just does not have enough power for shooting any thick (even kinda thick) finish. If you just want to shoot waterborne poly it works fine.

I wanted to shoot paint and oil based poly. For paint, forget it. Even with the heavy needle it just shoots splatter. For oil based poly it can't shoot a smooth even finish. With the heavy needle in it you get orange peel.

It was a good intro machine for me, but I ended up going for the top end

Accuspray on the second go round. Triple the price but you get professional results (why waste your time spraying if you get sub-par results?) and 3M's PPS which makes clean up a breeze. You know it's hard to justify the price for an expensive unit but think how many hours you have into your project. Why risk an average finish on it.

I have tried HVLP conversion guns in the past...Well, cheapy ones and was left dissapointed. A bathroom project that consisted of spraying a significant amount of Urethane and a bathtub with Acrylic polyurethane was on my list so I needed an HVLP and decided I wanted a turbine. Not wanting to invest alot of money I did a tremendous amount of research and decided on the HV2500. Although it is only a 2 stage unit I was satisfied with the specs and decided to give it a try. This unit comes with a fine and general fluid set. For an affordable $15 I bought a thick coatings fluid set should I attempt latex.

I used the Fine fluid set for the clear urethane which came out fantastic with great atomization and no runs. For the white Acrylic Polyurethane on the bathtub I used the general fluid set with satisfactory results. I got some orange peel but I blame that more on lack of experience than I do the HVLP itself. I need more practice spraying and getting the settings just right. The gun is reasonably easy to clean and should last a while so long as your not using this commercially. The unit comes with a 25' hose which is great to afford you the ability to keep the unit far away from the spraying vacinity and since they sound like vacuum cleaners the farther away the noise the better.

Overall if your looking for a decent HVLP with good parts availability at a really good price, give the HV2500 a try. It may suprise you.

Bought the CH HV2500 to paint all the cabinets in my house. Had never used a sprayer before. Took me six days to prepare the cabinets (remove hardware, wash, sand, prime, tape off face etc), and only about three hours to spray the whole job, 62 cabinets. I sprayed acrylic latex. The hardest part was in getting this thick paint thinned down to the correct viscosity. I also used Floetrol to help the latex lay flat. Once I discovered the correct mix, the CH HV2500 put on a mirror-like finish. I am very happy with this product.

we've been waiting to purchase an hvlp sprayer and have been experimenting with much more pricey outfits (1,000-2,000)We were in a pinch and decided to buy this outfit because we needed one asap. we figured it would hold us over till we could get one of the outfits we had been looking at purchasing. what a surprise! this is a great hvlp. we've used it numerous times now. no hassle to set up. no hassle to use. no hassle to clean. the hose is great for getting behind larger pieces and the spray flow is perfect to use with lacquer or poly. (although the 2 stage won't accomodate paint) we are so happy with it that we are going to stick with this one!

It takes practice to achieve great results to this system. The manual is very poor. I would not consider purchasing a cheaper system.

I'm spraying latex which needs to be thinned with water to look like chocolate milk. I also add Flotrol to help level out the finish. Don't expect to be spraying like an expert on your first try. However, after my third or fourth attempt I was happy. I'm assuming the finish will only improve as I get familiar with thinning paint and using the system.

The finish looks great but the application of paint seems to take forever. It does beat using brushes and/or rollers. There is hardly any overspray. I'm using it to spray custom cabinets/tables, etc.

...no one said finishing would be easy...this just makes it a little easier...
