Compressor question...
How often does everyone drain their compressors? I dont use mine much because i drain it every time. Its annoying to wait for it to build up all the way from 0 PSI. Is it dangerous to leave air in it? My garage is kind of wet, everytime I open the drain valve on the bottom it sprays out a little water.

There's no reason to drain it after every use. I have an electric ejection valve on mine. It cycles @ preset intervals and has a eject time setting on it. Got it from SCAT. Not expensive.
Mine leaks some, so it's "automatically" emptied after it sits for about 8 hrs...[I kill the power to it when I leave the shop]
