Seeking to purchase a low-cost home compressor for our (wife and I) tank fills for weekend dive outings. Looking to stay below $3k if possible and was wondering if anyone can elaborate on the following Max-Air Compressor sold at Leisure Pro for less than $3k.
Does anyone have any experience with such? I admit I know little about compressors other than quality of filtered air is extremely important, etc.
Thoughts? Suggestions?
Does this comp have enough power to realistically fill AL80's ok?

Dimensions: Length 28" x Depth 13" x Height 15"
Mounted on a durable powder coated steel frame with convenient carry handles.
Reliable 5.5hp Honda® gasoline engine or electric motor.
Oil/water separating chambers (manual drains)
