Default MV50 SuperFlow Hi-Volume Air Compressor

Due to a company bonus plan, I just received a Q Industries MV50 SuperFlow Hi-Volume Air Compressor. From the reviews I have read, it sounded like a good unit. I have seen a few of them up at Rausch Creek with other fellow JKers.



While looking it over, a few items look like good places to be upgraded.
a) The quick disconnect is different from every other that I have seen. Should
I change to the style I have on my home compressor?
b) While the stem connection looks good, would a clamp on style be better?

Thought, ideas, comments are most welcome.

change the quick disconnect if you want, that is more of a personal preference.

The stem connection for me has to be clamp on. Airing up with that thing will take a few minutes. To you really want to be kneeling down the whole time?

I have one, I would like to have the clamp on mine.. it would just make it so much easier to air up the tires.. I would also like to have a longer power cord, it really stretches out trying to air up the left rear tire.. Those things aside its a good little air compressor for the price and it does the job that I need to do.

That's the good thing; it did not cost me anything. Nice company bonus plan!!!

It is still sitting on the kitchen counter, so I can admire it. Maybe in a few weeks it will get used.
