    Well Sears calls it Oiless, if you owned one you would call it Airless 
and WAY TOO NOISY !

    After more research it appears that if I go with Champion compressors I 
will be going with the cheaper 22amp unit.  I have 100amp coming into the 
house and 30amps of those 100 go to the garage, the 25amp unit might be 
pushing it.  I didn't mind rewiring the garage circuit to 50amps but I am 
not sure that with only 100 going into the house it could handle it.  Darn, 
that auto-drain was awfully appealing to me.  I have been sent several 
links and will talk to them on Monday before I can make a final decision, 
the wife really wants to give me a new compressor for Valentines day.  So I 
have to make a decision soon and I have a LOT of glass beading to do in the 
next few weeks.  Since I have the room, any reason not to go with the 80gal 
tank ?  I did look at a 2stage Ingersoll Rand compressor today, not much 
air for the price in comparison to Curtis and Champion.
