I was thinking how messed up covid made things and was like oh god that’s a long time lmao

LOL you've successfully jedi'd me thankful LOL. The more I think about it a month and a half is nothing really especially when you think about it being made to order. It's been a week since the order so that's another plus.

I have two 10 gallons and I'm running 3 450's and have a forth as a backup. I agree no more is needed and worry more about wiring now then the time it taks to fill them. Moving to a level-ride system and I hear it's sensitive to voltage (if it's not one thing it's always the other LOL)

I'd get rid of the 450's and go with a pair of 444's, 480's or 485's. Higher working pressure, higher pressure at 100% duty cycle, and lower amperage. Here's a link to Viair's comparison chart.

I have mine wired through a key-on hot master switch and pressure switch on the ground side. Key on/switch on the compressors run once tank pressure drops below 145 psi and stop once it hits 175.

Thanks I'll look into this.

Yeah, I'm wired that way as well the issue I may run into is the draw from the main battery due to cable length per the guy who created level-ride. I have a second battery at the bed so it may be a simple change but there's also the potential issue of running it switched and not direct/parallel

What gauge wire are you using?

What gauge wire are you using?

Can't recall exactly, it's decent but I will probably go to a 0/1 to a block.

Syn you should have a delivery tomorrow right?

Looks like Monday now. FedEx tracking is pitiful.
