Good Cold Weather Compressor?
I'm looking to get a compressor before long- somewhere in the 4 gallon range, and trying to get an idea of what compressors work well in the cold. it's really annoying to have to huddle all the compressors on the job around the heater in order to get them warm enough to start. So far the only compressor that I know of that starts easy in the cold is the Senco pc2001- does anyone know of other good cold weather compressors to consider?

Re: Good Cold Weather Compressor?
I have a 6 gallon pancake from porter-cable. It is oil free. Because is it oil free, it starts right up in the cold. Other compressors like Emglo's, have oil and take a while to get started and sometimes blow fuses which can be annoying. The up side to Emglo is that it's more powerful and can run several guns at once, unlike the pancake.
