Update II

Used the hell out of it on the Tour this weekend. Worked great. Will fill a tire in no time, and will definitely run my impact.

One slight snafu: Wiring it off the battery was a mistake. If I shut off the engine before the tank has pumped up, the solenoid on the clutch stays energized. This will (did!) drain the battery in just a couple hours.

I'll rewire it through an ignition switched source, and it should be good to go.

Otherwise, I'm happy as a clam.
