THE PRESSURE'S ON!

One thing that has become apparent over the last few months whilst living with the knock-on effects of the CV-19 lockdown – I need air, and lots of it! Over the last few months, I have had to be rather conservative with my air usage, to the point where I was checking the air level before planning a pest-control trip.

With so much time on my hands, I dedicated much of it to researching various options, from the budget Chinese compressors through to the mid-range units, and all the way up to the high-end Daystate compressor. Videos were stacked up in my laptop for endless viewing, and certain units were dismissed immediately, whilst others were put onto the ‘requires further investigation’ file.
