    1.0 out of 5 stars Great Compressor That Gets Too Hot
    Reviewed in the United States on August 14, 2021
    Overall the compressor and package are well put together. The only functional complaint I would have is on the output. Depending on altitude, I can air up my 35" tires from 15-35 PSI 2.75 minutes near sea level and 4.5 minutes per tire near 10,000'. This extended air up time appears to have caused my compressor to heat up to levels I had not experienced since April in Texas. I've blow the compressor side hose fitting off the original hose and two more replacement hoses in the last two weeks when airing up my tires three times.

    ARB did send a warranty replacement for the original hose that the compressor came with, but I'm not sure how much good that's going to do me knowing that it will likely blow out within 1-2 uses. I requested that ARB take the entire compressor back, but they said I would need to make a return through the distributor, Amazon. My Amazon return period ended mid-May. The ARB rep also stated that this is a 50% duty cycle compressor and that cycle is over an hour, so max is run it 30 minutes then let it rest 30 minutes.

    I’ve noticed the air tank between the compressor and output fitting is very small on this portable model. The single (CKMA12) has a larger tank which likely helps buffer the hose from so much heat. The twin (CMKTA12) has a larger tank and a cooling fan to keep things cooler and allow 100% duty cycle.
