The air compressor is a nice addition to the product and something any vehicle owner can appreciate the value of. It may not be the most powerful compressor but for the most part you’ll be using this for topping up the tires and for this purpose the 84020 is quite sufficient. This facility will also be used for inflating bicycle tires, air beds, and water inflatables.
The unit also incorporates handy features like the flex-neck work light stored in the unit's handle which you can direct to illuminate whatever you wish; two 12-volt DC cigarette sockets for powering 12V accessories; access to three-pronged AC power by way of the built-in 200 watt, DC/AC power inverter.
