I had each of these previously and I went with the cheapest stuff last time.. and both have quit working on me.

I was wondering if anyone could suggest some good ones to go with? Individual or combined is okay with me.

The compressor should only see light use, but I'd like to be able to put some air in my air tank should the need ever arise as well.

I have a cheap comressor (cigarette lighter powered) from Checker. It what the one they call the "Truck" model. So far, it's lasted over two years and only cost about $30.

As for the booster, I've never owed one.

I bought a battery booster from Harbor Freight on the cheap. Check it out this weekend.

I gave up on portable compressors a long time ago. The one you had was the best that I'd seen and used.

I purchased a compressor and jump box (which has 12V AC out) for other stuff. Its completely rechargable and can crank a mofo moto about 5 times before a recharge. Pep Boys, $55.00. Good investment.
