No problem! I really like my Kidde compressor. The convenience of owning one is huge, especially where I live. I looked back at his post, and if that compressor is still available it does have auto shutoff. If you decide to go with one, they use Mobil Jet Oil 2. My last purity test came back with Grade E air. Good luck on your search!!

The specs you posted say 52 minutes to fill a 74cf tank. You are saying 20 minutes to fill a 98cf tank. Either you linked the wrong compressor or something is way off. My guess would be you, 98 cf in 20 minutes is 5cfm, you aren't getting that with a 110v compressor that pumps to 4500 psi.
Paintball and PCP guys bring AL80's in when they are still basically full for scuba diving.

Filling tanks with Cheap-O Air Compressors on eBay? page 4​

In short : this 2 stage compressors run the air too hot , they burn too much lubracation oel
A breathing air 200/300 bar compressor must have at least 3 stages to avoid this .
