I accidentally stumbled upon this find on amazon. Its a cordless air compressor with a 5 liter (1.32 gallon) tank. it can run on AC as well as a makita battery. It also comes with 2 adapters to allow it to run on a milwaukee and dewalt battery. Obviously its a knockoff of some sort coming out of a chinese factory but it is appealing. It would be a risk due to being near impossible to get something repaired if it turned out to be a lemon. https://www.amazon.com/TC·BL-Compressor-Dual-purpose-Compatible-Heavy-duty/dp/B089D576B3/ref=asc_df_B089D576B3/?tag=tooinact-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=459587573990&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=13035904942155547808&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9031561&hvtargid=pla-957842415762&psc=1
Wow, that’s a cool find. I think that might be the first thing like this I have seen that can not only have dual power but run off different battery manufacturers. Great find. I wonder how well it works.
