For the price what you get is insulting.

Pros: The engine runs smooth and is relatively quiet, this is largely offset by the fact that you will constantly hear a hiss from the bleeder valve if you are using it for anything less than 50 pounds per square inch. Cons: The only difference between the Smart and the Sprint is that the Smart Jet has an auto shut off feature. This doesn't make sense since you're not getting a regulator, you're getting a bleed valve. Using an exhaust valve means that if you lower the PSI from 50, the pump will

Pros
  • Adjusting bleeder valve airflow to reduce air pressure
Cons
  • Damaged

Pros
  • Max Working Pressure 1/8 HP 1-35 PSI
Cons
  • Miscellaneous Miscellaneous

Quiet compressor, but know your air volume requirements

I saw this air compressor on the Iwata booth during Milwaukee Trainfest 2010 and was immediately impressed by its quiet operation. first purchase of airbrush compressor to avoid them due to noise and vibration. I use it with Badger Patriot 105 and Binks Wren airbrushes. At home I can control this compressor indoors without disturbing the rest of the house. Silence, however, comes at the price of a limited amount of air; Specifications show 0.64 cfm. This is sufficient for most applications, but

Pros
  • Moisture filter prevents pulsation
Cons
  • Not bad, but...
