This compressor is built the same as the Campbell Hausfeld. The two
pistons are in the same block. There is an intense heat spot between
the cylinders. In the Puma V the cylinders are independent with
separate air filters.
I know I sound like I'm pushing Pumas, I'm probably trying to justify
the increased cost. For $40 more I think you get a heck of a lot.
