Would love to hear any input on this and other GX series compressors
this little one is very simple and there is no circut board to blow out
what kind of filters is everyone running on this unit.For me with winters
6 months long and extreme cold in my furnace room it rarely gets above
15% humidity and as low as 10% most of winter then in summer inside
air is dry as must run a/c most of summer so would the 5 or 6"Cigarette
filter that comes with the unit be ok if you just swap it out to dry with
a differant one each fill.Right now i fill with a hill mk 5 pro pump and i
love this pump.A person could also make a decicant pack for inside the
handle air intake as well right Thanks

Don, I have a GX clone and I use this one. Comes with 2 prefilled inner moisture/desiccant filters and you can purchase these separately, but are refillable by you also.

Hey Don, I have the GX CS2 and it's been working great for about 2 years now, I don't use it that often, but it does work good, I use desiccant in a larger filter, you can recycle desiccant by placing in an over at 200* for about 20 minutes, the CS2 now has a bigger brother, I bought a Spritech Compressor and it's faster with auto stop, got the same filters for that, what ever you use just make sure you check and replace filter media and Desiccant often in humid weather, the guns can handle some moisture but best to keep it out as much as possible.
