Are all you 10 pounders out there still happy now that you've had 'em for a while or do you wish you had gotten a bigger one?
Have you tried air tools on it?

I don't run air tool off of mine but I know radrod57 does and its really nice having air tools out on the trail! Makes a tire change a 2 min job instead of a 10 min one.
PM if you have any questions on the air tools. Not sure if he will see this thread.

I'm happy with the 10lb for just airing up the tires a few times. Very dissapointed to use the cylinder with my impact gun to remove and replace the lugs for a tire rotation that seemed to kill the tank quickly. $23 bucks just to refill sucks!!! It's worth it regardless of the cost in so many situations so I guess I'm happy.

I think a 20# tank would be too large to carry. I bought a 2nd 10# tank in order to have a filled tank in reserve.
I tried a cheap Sears air wrench, but returned it because it didn't have sufficient torque to remove lugnuts. PowerTank sells an Ingersoll-Rand air wrench that I'm sure will do the job, but I'm in no hurry to get it.
