Where did you take those temp readings. The Viair has a head design that will be much more effective at pulling heat from the compression chamber and dissipating it. What was the temp of the heads say 1 min and 2 min after shut off?
I assume the intent was to use a real world scenario, not all robots have a 1 gallon combined tank volume. Also, from an electrical perspective, motor heat would be more important (although melting seals would probably be counterproductive).
