I will mount mine in the trunk of my car and I’m wondering how loud it will be? and also how long will it run for?
All that depends on how well the truck is insulated for noise…
As for how long it will run. Depends on size of tank, and which compressor you get, and what psi you run.
which compressor? my 480 is considerably louder than the 280 I previously owned… Its in the truck and I can tune it out with music but its still faintly there. the 280 was hardly noticeable when I owned it.
i can barely hear my dual 480s in my truck… but then i have an avalanche…lol its awesome to have the space
I have had a 480 going to 200 psi on a 3 gallon tank in my trunk in my honda and it is fairly loud. Makes the entire car seem like something is wrong with my engine. Might wanna try and use dampening cloths to help. I am currently building a box to house it that will be packed with dampening cloths and use a remote hose for it to breathe. just my 5 cents.
If your trunk is carpeted, as most are, it should help dampen the sound.
