It's just for my garage.. typical stuff like air ratchets, impacts, cutters. I don't do body work in there so it's not like I have to run a grinder.

Mainly I want something with moderate air delivery and not so loud as to wake the dead or make my ears bleed.

The step up isn't a bad idea.. I will as my electrician how much that would run.

This was the best one I had found.. at least is was belt drive and twin cylinder.. I "think" it's oil filled. and it can convert to 220V
