The higher you raise the cut in pressure the tougher it will be on your motor and starting issues too. Seems you are asking alot from this little comressor imo.
/It may be peak vs RMS V x I computation, sure. But I think its more like the Torque x RPM max the motor is capable of before breaking to a stall. It will burn up in a few minutes at that level because it will be drawing over 2x rated current.

you are either not reading my posts or totally not understanding them at all.
this is clearly a peak vs rms issue.

I've been reading. Must be the understanding part. Please explain just how your theory works.
I'm getting alot of info here and thank you all, very much.
Forgive me as I keep asking questions
A "Hard Starting Capacitor" was suggested. I found several on GRAINGER.. for 1/4 to 10 HP motors; 110-377Volts. That would cover my application. The photo only has two leads, I presume to go INTO the "hot lead". How do you put into 240V where you have TWO hot leads?
Back to the pressure switch.....if the switch is NON-adjustable, can a better adjustable switch be installed?
I'm real excited here....might have a much better air compressor that will actually run on my 6500W generator....[/B]
