Finally - a truly portable compressor that is lightweight, battery operated and ready to go anywhere.

The innovative HipShot Portable Compressor from Palmgen is the most portable battery powered compressor for pneumatic nailers and staplers. At just 6.6 pounds, this handy tool can be worn around the waist or over the shoulder for hands-free operation. It is perfect for inaccessible locations, finishing up projects, or completing many small items on a punch list.

The secret to HipShot's size is that unlike most compressors, it uses no air tank. The hose and whatever tool you attach to the HipShot store the air you need.

Power comes from a 12-volt rechargeable Nickel-Cadmium (Ni-Cad) battery, which is included, along with an AC charger. Minimum charge time for the battery is 1 hour, but allow 3-4 hours for a full charge. The HipShot will provide 7-8 minutes of total operation per battery charge, but the automatic shutoff feature extends that considerably. When HipShot reaches its maximum operating capacity of 125 pounds/square inch (psi). If the pressure drops below 85 psi, the compressor automatically turns on again. There is also a manual shutoff switch and an onboard low-battery indicator light. Overall, you can expect to get 120-180 shots per charge with 18-gauge fasteners, or 30-50 shots per charge with 15-gauge fasteners.

HipShot will powers pneumatic staplers, pin, brad or finish nailers, and can be used with many competitive pneumatic guns on the market. Or for best results, check out Palmgrens complete line of Nailers and Staplers.

HipShot is ideal for inaccessible locations, finishing up projects; completing many small items on a punch list, small projects, or anytime you don't need to drag out the big compressor and hoses.

Summary: Great for small repair jobs! 2010-07-17
Comment: This is NOT a production nailer nor is it advertised as such. Because the compressed air is held only in the air hose it is best suited for small repair jobs. I use it often, particularly when working on 2nd story exteriors, for replacing missing and damaged shingles on old Victorian houses and when replacing rotten crown molding up under the eaves. Using Porter Cable air tools I usually can get 6-8 shots using 1" narrow crown staples or 18 gauge brads up to 2" long before the pressure drops too low to fully sink a fastener. It fully recharges the air line in about 30 seconds, which is much longer than it takes me to move the ladder for access to another section.

Buy it for its intended purpose and you will not be disappointed...

Watch for sales on this item. I purchased it for $35 shipped through Amazon.

Summary: Extremely handy little tool! 2010-05-07
Comment: I read lots of positive and negative reviews before buying the HipShot. I think it absolutely performs as advertised, and I've found it reliable and very, very useful. This is NOT a production tool. It's for small building and repair projects and, when used appropriately, is excellent. True, the battery doesn't last for long, but since you have a spare to work with, that's never been a problem for me. The convenience is just fantastic. I've used it to shoot brads for gluing up in the shop, resolve punchlist trim problems on jobs, install small amount of trim in my own house, repair trellis' in my garden....the list goes on and on. This is a tool I wouldn't be without.

Summary: Three & a half Stars 2009-10-09
Comment: Would be a poor choice without the second battery. I have yet to keep track of exactly how many "shots" I get from one charge with an 18 gauge nailer but it is not very many. While working on a project I am continually swapping batteries. If I was working any faster I would need a 110v compressor. I am currently working "inside" with close access to 110v so I have to carry two items (Hipshot + gun)instead of just one with a regular compressor. If I did not have easy access to 110v then I may give the unit another star for portability.

I bought the Hipshot to keep costs down and it WILL "get the job done". Time will tell (other projects) if I should have ponied up for a regular 110v compressor.

Summary: What a load of garbage 2009-09-08
Comment: I ordered one of these back in January used it twice and it died. Exchanged it for a second one which I used three times and it died. At this point I am not even sure it is worth returning. I am seeing posts from others saying that units must be returned at your own expense. Seriously not worth the hassle.
