If we code the "Start compressor with the Analog, we can run down the pressure to 60-65 and use the battery less... I think
Running the high side at about 115 psi gives your system more air volume to work with. If you run the high side at 65 psi your compressor may not be able to keep up with the cycles or speed that are need during competition.
