My understanding is they are both a high pressure tank for CO2 use, double gauge regulator (adjustable from 0-150PSI), guard for the regulator and then a hose and chuck. I've seen the PT-15lbs for as low as $330+S/H but I've seen the 4WheelAir-20lbs for $275 shipped. I know some people have used one or the other and I'd be interested in your opinion. I'd also like to hear of anyone comparing the two side by side and what they liked/disliked about each. thanks! pwc   Nick Bellistri (Nickbell) New Member Username: Nickbell Post Number: 32 Registered: 11-2002 Posted on Sunday, February 09, 2003 - 12:14 pm:    I have the trail air and have been more than pleased w/ it. its a no frills set up. i think, from what i can remember the powertank has some extra accessories but thats it. but given price and simplicity id say the trail air is the way to go   Mike B.

I've not used the TailAir, but it looks like it will do the job too.   Peter Carey (Pcarey) advanced member Username: Pcarey Post Number: 470 Registered: 05-2002 Posted on Monday, February 10, 2003 - 10:04 pm:    Thanks Mike and Nick. So far, with a score of 1 and 1, it sounds like either will work fine. pwc   Christopher Dynak (Adtoolco) Member Username: Adtoolco Post Number: 66 Registered: 08-2002 Posted on Monday, February 10, 2003 - 10:33 pm:    I just bought a 20 lb Co2 tank off Ebay for a $100 bucks. I don't think it'll be a problem modifying it to fill up tires or powering air tools. -Chris
