Hi,
I mounted an air hose coupler on my portable tank and put a decent air
chuck on a short hose. To fill the tank fast I made up a male-male
connector so I can
hook it directly to my air lines - you use the valve on the tank to keep
things from getting exciting (turn off valve, plug in male/male, plug in
air line,
turn on valve to fill, turn off valve when full, disconnect airline,
etc). It fills pretty quickly.
Its also handy to be able to put a longer hose on the air tank, use the
tank to power air tools in a pinch, etc.
Best,
rkg
