Don't want to waste your money on a heavy cordless nailer that you will rarely use? This is the answer.....a cordless compressor that uses all of your regular air lines & finish nailers from your shop --- and runs completely off of battery packs!

RIDGID just released this new 18v brushless compressor in their rapidly expanding Gen5X lineup & the runtime and performance is very impressive....especially when you consider that you do not have to find an available wall outlet, extension cord, or generator in order to use it.

Unlike larger stacked or pancake compressors, this one is focused around finish carpenters, woodworkers, and light automotive uses. You won't change tractor trailer tires on the side of the road --- but you can easily top off your car tires or refill the air if you get a flat.

In this video we show you the complete overview and operation of the RIDGID & also do runtime and performance testing, so you can quickly see the type of job it will do for you.

What compressor are you currently using? Leave a comment below & let me know ---- I may end up checking it out!

You can find the RIDGID (bare tool) exclusively at the Home Depot here -- http://www.homedepot.com/p/RIDGID-1-G...
