We now have installed an Oasis Compressor in our truck. This is American built and supplied buy the Australian distributor, Jedair.
Why did we change to a Jedair Compressor?
After less than three years of use, two warranty rebuilds and a complete replacement, countless blown fuses, poor performance and always running way too hot, our ARB Twin Compressor is gone. I have never been happier……
We now have an extremely good, high performance and reliable compressor.
We have installed our unit with a full current isolator and a remote on off control switch. This enables us to store gear in front of the compressor and not have to physically access it.
Our tank is smaller than recommended by Jedair but it suited our installation area and was my preference.
There are a few issues that can be caused by having an undersized tank, the main one being the pressure switch not performing as intended. This was overcome by mounting the pressure switch adjacent to the tank connected by a flexible air line.
We have installed the xd4000 model. Its specifications far exceed any other four wheel drive style compressor on the market.
This unit is expensive but you only pay for it once. The advantages of speed, reliability and multiple uses (air tools, blow down etc) far out weigh the initial purchase cost.
Spares are no problem in Australia as Jedair stocks all of them (I have seen it).
When ever I use this compressor it just makes me smile, because it is so good.

It has certainly been an adventure so far for us adapting to living in a boat. We can't wait to share all our land and sea adventures with you very soon.
