3HP and 2.5HP have same CFM

Where does the value of "horsepower" come from, I can't help thinking a horse is much more powerful than a tiny motor.

A term used by James Watt to compare the power of steam engines to draught horses, if you look on Wiki, it gives a full explanation.

I'd take any specifications plate with spelling mistakes on it like that with a pinch of salt...

Ha ha OK, you beat me. I've listened to what you said, which is why I came on here in the first place. Just bought a proper 3HP unit by Wolf with a 90litre tank and 150psi so should last a lot longer. Many thanks for all the chat. I learned a lot ! Awesome forum !

Brilliant it sounds like you reached a conclusion 2 months earlier than I did, and without being miffed at a purchasing a lesser unit

We look forward to hearing your opinion of the Wolf when you get it!

Hopefully it will get delivered soon so you can try the plasma cutter.
Cheers
