Portable Air Compressor Power?

[MileHigh]

I saw some old posts about this, but wondered about newer options. I know there is the NATO option, but I was hoping for something closer to turn-key or based on internal power options. Not a fan of having to raise the hood and use the alligator clips, looking for an Anderson connector option.

For the ARB twin brushless, you need 12V at 90A under load? Any other options to power it?

I ran a cable from the high current fusebox next to battery with an Anderson connector on the end.

I mounted the Anderson where the NATO socket would be mounted. You could mount it anywhere though.

Got some pics?

I’v designed a pretty slick tooless L-track mounting system, so putting that on the back of the portable case might be a way to keep it out of the dirt and mud- or the flats on the front fender for something behind the front grill…

The roof power outlets don’t have enough juice, do they?

Jeff @ JC's 4x4 made an adapter for the rear NATO plug.

Has anyone tried fitting/mounting an ARB compressor in the space behind where the tire jack sits? There is quite a large area back there and it would be easy to have a removable plug if you could tap into the NATO plug

Yes there is a thread, I believe black sheep created an option.

A not very exciting picture of the Anderson with rubber cover on the rear.
I also use it for charging my battery.



The roof outlets would only run a tiny compressor.
