Gibbons" <gibbons@northpole.med.uvm.edu>; Date: Mon, 3 Mar 1997 09:51:01 -0500 (EST); He is correct about the efficiency, but the problem is that the 6 HP rating on most 6 HP compressors is wildly optimistic. It is probably a 3 HP compressor at best. The 2 stage will deliver a lot mor; /html/shop-talk/1997-03/msg00014.html (9,964 bytes)
