MNSIGDoes anyone have the DeWalt FlexVolt cordless compressor?
Looks slicker than heck (If it works). I've got lots of compressed air lines out in the garages, but use a portable tank for small jobs inside the house. Nailers, etc.
This unit is obviously more expensive than a portable tank, but would be nice to not have to refill.

Excam_ManIve been wanting to grab one of those since they introduced them, to replace a heavy 120v Porter Cable pancake.
Given the quality of their other 20 volt cordless tools, I'd say it should be good to go.

cparktdWould be nice but how noisy is it?
Noise might be a deal breaker, on a job site I like having the compressor out in the yard behind something because I don't like to hear it.

wreckdiverQuieter than most compressors, takes a little over a minute to fill the 2.5 gallon tank to 135lbs. Haven't had mine too long, but I love it for my plumbing van!
Small footprint, but puts out quite well, not for anyone who uses a shitload of air. Home use is what it is aimed at, so keep that in mind.
These Flexvolt tools are pretty awesome, I bought the 16" chainsaw awhile back and love it!! Must quieter than my gas saws, and it works great!!
Comes with a 6ah 60 volt battery, but will work with 20V and 120V batteries too.

I didn't realize that it worked that way. I knew you could use the 60v battery on a 20v tool, but didn't know the reverse was true. Does it chew through the battery 3x as fast?
