I forgot to mention, carrying a few extra fuses is a good idea. This compressor uses a 40 amp inline fuse.........

Erick, Great write up on the ViaAir I have been looking at this ViaAir 400P for sometime for my 2013 truck. I have an ExtremeAire compressor that I installed in 2004 that is been flawless in my 1999 Truck. I went through several smaller (read as broke) units before installing the ExtremeAire. I am wondering if anybody has used one of these ViaAir products over a say 10 year period and how has it held up? The downside of the ExtremeAire is the amount of power it draws and associated $$.

Good timing that this thread popped up today. Regardless of the last time that we camped I have always (16+ years) charged my trailer batteries every 3 months. Today being the closest Sat. to 9/30 it was charge day. I have this battery as well as an older/wimpier group 29 Interstate & an even wimpier group 24 Interstate. With this battery we last camped 5.5 weeks ago (with Mr. & Mrs. Big E in fact!) and after that dry camping trip I charged this battery up before storing it in the...

Unfortunately, my VIAIR 88P seems to have died on me the second time I put it to use. I was topping off the tires on my TV when the VIAIR made a phhht sound, and stopped pushing air. I replaced the 20 amp blade fuse in the cord, but it still doesn't work. I'm open to suggestions from anyone who knows more about these than I do. Don

That's not a bad idea Don. I thought about hooking it to the trailer batteries but am concerned a prolonged, high amp draw wouldn't be good for my AGMs, especially if boondocking. Those extension hoses aren't that expensive either.

We've had This Guy since before we got the Lance (2013). It's proved really good at keeping things cool, with an up to 40 degrees difference between outside temps and cooler temps. It draws about 5 amps at 12 VDC, so a 100 watt solar panel can keep up with it, and even as an unpowered cooler, it's well insulated. We got the Koolatron 110 volt adapter, which has just this last trip failed, and we're testing a generic 10 amp replacement, which seems to be working well. We also got the...
