There are a lot of these generic Chinese Airbrush / Compressor sets about under different names. I bought one very similar to yours few months ago and it works great. Its so convenient and easy to use, it works great with my Badger 105 Patriot (with 1/4" hose Adaptor). However the airbrush that came with it is much better than the first Chinese airbrush I bought some years ago. Much better workmanship and great performance. I find the .3mm nozzle and needle set up works best. Really good review, I got the hose too but never used it.

That sounds like a good idea. After the video, while cleaning the airbrush, I bumped the hose and the cordless compressor fell on the floor breaking one of the batteries. They are so light it is easy to knock them off your bench. Luckily the spare battery still works with it. I will try your idea and put the compressor in my pocket next time.

Hello HH, I too burned out the batteries in a previous cordless compressor so I used these videos, along with my own research, to find and buy a new one, thanks. Also, I'm planning to come in at the Wombat level of patronage after the holidays because you are worthy of my support, thanks again. 👋🏾

Good on you Angelo… I am thinking of trying the hose on my other compressors, but one problem is if you forget its attached and move the airbrush too quickly you can bump the light compressor off the workbench to the floor. I’ve already done this by accident and broken one of the two batteries.

Yep they have their uses and I’ve been quite happy with mine for almost all my airbrushing needs these last 2 years. Just Stynylrez on a cold day needs more umph from a floor corded compressor.

Nice video! I picked up one of these about a month ago after a recommendation from another youtuber. Overall I'm very happy with it. It's great if you just need a quiet airbrush/compressor on a budget. I was using a 3 gallon shop compressor prior to this and just couldnt take the noise. My only complaint really is that it seems like the pressured drops on this after about 10-15 minutes of usage. It's an audible change and very noticeable in my results. I've found that switching the battery to a fully charged one brings it back up to full pressure. It also seems that just popping the same battery out and back in works as well but I need to test this more to be sure.

@HarryHoudiniModels

I would guess if you have used it for 15 mins continuously then the compressor is overheating. So removing the battery, letting in cool air, and replacing may just allow the internal seals to cool then tighten again, resulting in improved pressure.

Looks pretty good! 👍 Thanks for the great in-depth first review; look forward to seeing how it holds-up.... 😊

After seeing your review I bought it (first time airbrush user) and I actually really like the hose idea and for me, it works really well like that.

It’s not a bad solution… just secure your compressor on the workbench when using the hose. I accidentally flipped my compressor onto the floor and broke the battery connections, rendering that battery useless. Luckily there was a spare, but it’s the Achilles heel with this design.

I ran an older cordless model without a hose. Adding a 2m hose causes it to start running at a lower pressure then conking out and stopping much faster over extended use. It is also not uniform how long it takes to stop. Taking a break every minute or so stops this. I figure the extra load from needing to pressurise the hose causes issues. Considering getting one of these now as the compressor unit looks larger/more capable. Having two would be fine as well for extended sessions.

@HarryHoudiniModels

Just be careful of the light weight compressor and short hose. Doesn’t take much to flip it off the bench and smash onto the floor, as mine did. I’ve damaged one battery already, and it does not lock back into the compressor, so is useless. One tip I was given was to put the compressor in your pocket, then there is less chance of dropping it. Honestly, I feel the hose just negates the entire concept of a portable cordless airbrush. But each to their own.

Interesting. Still trying to figure the benefit of this over any other compressor you'd hook up to a floor.. beyond the shekels. I'll be following along and see what you think as time goes on, HH. Thanks.

I think affordability, ease of use, and for first time users a good gate way into airbrushing. It’s also relatively quiet, so can be used more as you don’t disturb others as much. Quick to setup anywhere, you just pick it up and go - as long as you have charged the compressor. Takes up less space in the hobby room. Great for quick jobs as it’s instantly ready to go - as long as you remembered to charge. The hose helps you get down into lower areas better and allows multiple brands of airbrush to be fitted. But most of all…. it’s just fun and funky!

I live in an apartment and can't justify the sound or the fumes of the paint inside. So I take this boy outside with a cardboard box and prime/base paint whatever I'm working on and go back inside. Neighbors don't hate me and family and cats don't need to inhale the fumes. Not to mention my space is limited, not a million years do I have room for a floor compressor. If you have the space for a tank compressor it's better in (almost) every way, but I think this product has a target audience for people like me.

Do you think it will be good enough for priming (Black/White/Metallic), zenethal highlights and varnishing?

@HarryHoudiniModels

It’s just a regular airbrush on a portable compressor. Anything that can usually be sprayed at 20 psi should work on this cordless with a hose. However for thicker primers, like Stynylrez, I have found they struggle on long sessions. If you can prime in under 5 minutes then it should cope. Or simply replace the airbrush, using the supplied adaptor, for a larger needle version.

For how long can you paint before the engine get too hot ? or out of battery ? thanks for the video it is very helpful.

Hard to say as I only use cordless for small projects so never run the battery down. However on another cheap cordless I bought from eBay it ran for 30 mins continually when I tested it, but overheated the battery and ruined it. These kind of setups are just for short sessions with many breaks not continuous use.

The hose is a standard type so should fit most airbrushes. From memory I think I showed how to connect my Iwata airbrush. So that should give you an idea of how it works with another airbrush attached.

@HarryHoudiniModels

The airbrush comes with a braided hose, but it is quite stiff, so any sharp movement as you spray can flick the compressor off your workbench. I would suggest a softer and longer hose, plus make sure you secure the compressor so it cannot fall and break, as mine did.

@T_TriesGaming the compressor is very light, not usually an issue when directly screwed to an airbrush, but with the hose any airbrush movement will twist and turn the hose, so the very light compressor can, and did in my case, fall off your workbench. My battery tab then snapped so that battery is now unable to click back into the compressor. Luckily there is a spare battery so I have been able to continue using the compressor. It was suggested you put the compressor in your pants pocket, so it is safe. I now wedge it under my workbench so it cannot fall. Apart from that it has worked fine, even with the supplied airbrush, although I am still not convinced the hose is a good idea, as it defeats the whole reason for a “cordless airbrush”.

If you have a big compressor with a storage tank then you need regulation and water traps due to high compression and condensation in the tank. These little cordless compressors only have enough umph to put out 20 psi at best and with no storage tank there is no need for a moister trap. Not BS. Science baby!
