Re: Thomas Compressor
We aren't using any pneumatics this year, but I have been in on several support threads. While using the spike to control the compressor is legal, it is really not the best solution. The PCB has circuitry to dampen the transient as the motor starts up, reducing the likelihood of tripping the fuse/breaker in the first place. I'm a "late adopter" who only uses something new when it is either mandatory or a clear improvement over the old-and-trusted. From what I've read, I'd rather use the PCB to control the compressor this year. If you decide to go the Spike route, a breaker rather than a fuse is a must!
