Here is what I discovered. Under load ie when pumping a tyre this unit draws 90 amps. I suspect the wire you used is not rated for that current draw. I learnt the hard way. I tested it without load just as you did and patted myself on the back for a job well done. 14 psi on the beach and burnt wires with no way to pump up the tyres.

Yea I changed them a while ago to 100amp cables

Oh that looks nice! I’ll give you a call when we next get a flat tyre 😁

Very awesome my friend thanks for sharing always nice to have in car

Nicely done bro, everything looks compact and snug 👌🏼

Nice bro!! Coming along real nice!

Good vid and you've given me some ideas. Maybe the next project could be an on-board vacuum?

Nice one mate

it going to work good m8

Nice way to mount the air compressor. I read some of the post below and they made some good points about the wires, also dealing with my compressor I know those 2 heat sinks on top would get hot and I noticed you have your mounted next to the plastic I hope it doesn't melt that plastic trim.

I mounted mine in an ammo case on my roof rack. Makes it easy to reach all the tyres.

Awesome man looks good where is just put my five cents worth in on the light that you’re gonna put up on the roof I had one on a little telescopic poll that just sat in a hole in the back of the vehicle you can find somewhere to put it and you can pull it out and put it in the ground on a telescopic poll portable Packaway just need long cable Basically a fishing rod holder in the back somewhere cheers mate awesome video

I personally would add a circuit breaker sooner rather than later, other than that, nice video mate. Cheers.

Nice i'm looking to do something similar with the same unit - but isn't all high amp draw accessories meant to run off your crank battery?

My auxiliary battery was a big one.

Get a good magnet, about 10ft of power wire with a cigarette lighter plug. Then you can mount your light where you need it.

Looks like you installed a shield generator for your Truck.

It’s been two year no doubt the 30amp wire you joined too 100amp wire burnt right through

Haha I rewired it with 100amp cable straight away after all the comments so no issues so far.

Nice now you can mount a portable water rocket launcher on top of your Truck, just pressure rise the rocket then fire and reload.

I think you need to use a much larger wire like jumper cables for a 90 amp draw, not that skinny wire you are using.

Nice Chris with the light get a compression spring under side with a nylock nut and an ordinary nut as a double locker. Spring holds it tight when rotating. Is the compressor rubber mounted?👍🏼💯🇳🇿

I'd love to know where you got that rear tyre carrier? I've not seen another and my 80 came with one but no diea of the brand!!?

It’s the factory wheel carrier but I’ve had it modified a bit.

I’ve changed out the cables for 100amp rated new ones a while ago.

the wires you used look like 10AWG possibly 12AWG, which is rated to 70A max, just be careful as that wire cable you're using is definitely not substantial for 90amps

The only mistake you made was buying a Kings unit. I wouldn’t bolt it down too tight…
