It saves wayyy more than 30 seconds, haha. In my previous setup I had to:Like 30 seconds.
To me personally the big plus of a hardwired compressor is that it saves cargo space, as well as being conveniently always there.
I have a 2 door and plan to eventually install a single ARB in the engine compartment.
Time savings isnt an issue. i plug mine directly on the winch. But i could easily open the hood with my 2 hands and plug to the battery in a matter of seconds.
1. Open the back of the jeep
2. Undo my cargo net on my storage shelf
3. Move stuff in front of the compressor out of the way
4. Open my engine bay and connect it to my battery
5. Air up all of my tires
6. Disconnect the compressor, close hood.
7. Put compressor back onto storage shelf. Put the things I temporarily had to move back in front of the compressor.
8. Close up the back of the jeep
With my current setup, I have to:
1. Grab my air-up bag from my storage shelf (dont need to touch the cargo net because I can pull the bag out easily without loosening the net)
2. Connect my air line to the chuck and turn it on
3. Air up all of my tires
4. Disconnect my hose
5. Put my bag back onto the storage shelf.
Way more than 30 seconds.
