It fills my compressor even quicker than the more expensive major brand model I had. Review: The Compressor and switch were acting up once winter set in. The initial unit shipped with the horns, started running often, so often it drained the truck battery to the point of replacement required. I was forced to remove the fuse in winter after battery replacement. This continued into year 2 and in October I had to disable the horns until spring. Between April and June the compressor finally died (still ran all the time) and no recharging the tank. The tank was holding pressure, and we checked the air lines for leaks with none identified. Once we replaced the compressor with the heavy-duty model and the new pressure switch, the tank holds pressure, and no random running of the compressor. I verified this with a battery Trail Camera sound and motion activated, placed facing the compressor in the engine compartment for a week with no intermittent operation of the compressor noted. Fingers crossed this resolves the issue for me. One comment! We moved the intake and filter inside the truck cabin when we saw how much dirt and moisture has accumulated in that filter. This will keep the compressor cleaner and avoid moisture and dirt accumulation collecting from the engine compartment. I recommend doing this when you install this system. Best of luck! ## Features - 200 PSI COMPRESSOR - A efficient 12V compressor with an air flow rate of 1.7CFM and ¼" NPT hose that will rapidly fill up your air tank for applications such as train horns, air suspension, tire inflation and air tools - MAXIMUM PROTECTION - Equipped with a thermal overload protector switch that protects the unit by preventing the motor to overheat - STRONG LEADER HOSE WITH CHECK VALVE - Heavy duty rubber hose covered with a stainless steel mesh for maximum protection against heat and high pressure.

You must provide a "Pressure Switch" with "Differential Pressure Adjustment" in order to Adjust " Turn-Off and Turn-on" Pressure that you require. You also should include a Relay, and Fuse. The pressure Switch alone is not Heavy enough to carry the required Amperage of Start-up. Always include a Fuse of rated Start, and Run capacity. boba **Q: Any warranty? I bought it last year and it’s been sitting all winter went to turn it on it runs and dies out after a couple minutes.** A: Hello;; Your unit appers to have a "Pressure Switch". This switch usually is Adjustable... It is normay set to turn "OFF", at a frequently needed Pressure.. Look at the Incoming Power wires. The switch would be "In Line" before the Compresor motor. **Q: Anyone know where to get parts for these? the piston on mine snapped (it gets a lot of use). thanks, mason** A: I Know This Is A 2 yr Old Question ,But The Piston Rod Snapped In My VXC8301 6 Months After Installation. Air Horns & Its Not Like I Use Them Everyday....Bad Design. I Called Amazon & Their Sending Me A New One Under Another 1 yr Warranty,You Can Add A 3yr Warranty For A $. **Q: Can I use a one gallon tank?** A: This pump says it can be used with up to a 5 gallon tank. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by C***R on 12 February 2026* Great quality at an outstanding price.
