Metabo HPT Introduces A Compressor That Runs On Battery Or AC Power
As battery-powered nailers continue to search for a good weight loss program, cordless air compressors have been making their way onto more jobsites. They’re a nice step forward, but the Metabo HPT 36V MultiVolt 2-gallon air compressor aims to change your perception of what a cordless compressor can be.
Metabo HPT 36V MultiVolt 2-Gallon Air Compressor | The Big Deal
Finally, there’s a legit hybrid air compressor! Metabo HPT built the EC36DAQ4 around its 36V MultiVolt system. On one hand, the 36V power source is stronger than most of the cordless models available. On the other, you can use Metabo HPT’s AC adapter to run the compressor with a more traditional cord. Simply go with whichever is the most convenient for the job at hand.
The performance is impressive compared to other cordless options as well. The brushless motor is able to top the tank off at 135 PSI and deliver 1.6 CFM at 90 PSI. That’s 33% more air delivery than Milwaukee’s impressive M18 Fuel air compressor. Plus, the hot dog-style 2-gallon tank refills in just 17 seconds.
Additional Highlights
