Mine is similar to Dennis' and also was made by Thomas Industries. I had to special order it as mine has a little higher duty cycle (usage time) mine will aslo pump up to 175 PSI but you need to be aware that your storage tank may not be rated that high. I also bought a SquareD pressure switch that operates on a differentil between high and low pressure which you can select. I used a 5 gallon portable air tank and used it to start the RAM's a couple of times. I build faster than Dennis but I never did get around to assembling it all together into a usable unit. The compressor was fairly expensive, somewhere around $250-300. I used a deep cycle marine battery that I keep in my trailer anyway, and mine was going to be mounted on a wagon.

But......... I got lazy and converted everything to autostart as well now all I have to carry is my fuel, air compressor (for retracts) start gas, and fire extinguisher. Did I mention how well the JetCat autostart works???
