I read the first few paragraphs that said the death was caused by CO. I quit reading after that.

Yeah. I've never done an air test on mine except to watch the CO level and check the O2 level. But I change filters on an hourmeter and auto drain the condensate.We’re arguing the same point. Except you’re saying that it isn’t a scuba compressor (or a grade E compressor) if the correct filter isn’t installed. I think you can make grade E air in most situations with the wrong filter installed, but in some situations, (runs too hot, truck idling nearby) the hopcalite can save your bacon. But I know a lot of folks who run with the wrong filter and never fail an air test. They never perform one either.
4 stage, continuous duty. I run mine all day hooking up 3 big tanks at a time.
Edit: The little Kidde's did something on jet airplanes. They ran whenever the jet was running according to JS.
Only takes a 2hp motor so runs fine on a 20 amp 240 volt circuit.Nice! And I meant to say single phase.
Perfect "many cases" it is - lol. I'm not going to argue with you I dont really care.
I can’t follow the negatives. Hopcalite or no hopcalite?I am pretty confident to say that not a single person running a private electric powered compressor in Australia is not using hopcalite in their filter and that the vast majority of dive shops in Australia also do not use.
