90 amps...damn. The profile seems cleaner, though. I particularly hate that the outlet on the OG is at the top...not great with the 813 mount (but I do love their mount). Good on them for improving the IP rating, too.

I'll stick with my Thor portable compressor for that money.

Great seeing you in Moab last week Tim!!!

On a side note, Tim is the man!!! We have known each other for about 10 years now, but every time I see him I am in awe. Tim has been around forever and just knows his stuff. Glad we are friends.
