A simple way to tell if your hose is connected is to BRIEFLY put your finger over the hole while running compressor. You will feel suction if it is and nothing if it is not.

For those of you that have the nomad wondering how do the car cables work length wise. I am interested in purchasing a Nomad myself but drive a truck and not sure I would be able to put the nomad on the ground and pump my gun there? if they dont work do you have any insight on what you do to combat this issue?

I took mine out to the farm this past weekend and put a small folding table next to my truck and the cables reached fine. Pumped up my two guns in 3-4 mins! I'm loving this little compressor!

Having problems not sure what it could be but I have had my Nomad 2 since the 4th month of 2020, maybe used it no more than 15 times to fill my Impact. Three days ago I had to replace the Delrin Bleed valve washer. Pumped up my gun No issues. till this afternoon. Started to pump the gun and the pressure would not go above the 150 bar mark. stopped it and did a full inspection, Nothing leaking inside all parts seemed connected and in order. and I tried again. only this time it started to make a bit of a clunking sound. and self shut off. I checked both the bleed valve's side and bottom. and what came out has me puzzled. Silver sheen oil out of both Valves. Packed it up and thinking either something with the piston chamber or the push rod is broken. Has anyone had this issue.???

You guys scare me. I have had a Nomad 2 for about a month and have filled 4 times a week with it. No problems so far, however all these problem post make me wonder if it will soon die. Grin!!

Very interesting thread with good info provided by all. I've considered getting one myself to keep in the truck so I don't have to carry my Great White tank around. Keep up the reports.

I have 3600 psi tanks on a couple of Condors. Do those of you using this compressor feel that filling to such levels on small tanks would be too hard on the compressor?

Not sure if this has been answered already as I'm skimming. The gauge is supposed to be stiff so the machines vibration doesn't change the needle set point.
