An important consideration in choosing an air compressor is not just how high it will go but at what pressure it kicks back on when using air. Example: you want to fill to 90 PSI. The compressor will pump up to 95 PSI. Sounds good? Not if it does not restart until it gets down to 85 PSI. In this case 85 PSI is the highest you can continually get from the compressor. Not good enough if you need 90 PSI. Also consider the volume of air it will give you at full pressure. It does not take a lot of air for a bicycle tire but a small compressor could take an hour to fill a large high pressure tire. Just two things to look at when selecting a compressor.
