It has been good so far as well.

For gauge I have been using this one:

I use this for inflating tires. Pancake Air Compressor - 3 Gallon, 100 PSI

Bought mine for $40 when they have discounts.

At home I check tires every few weeks (I don't drive much) and use a really good inflator...one I've had a couple of years.

The two times each year I go to a road track, there is usually air available....but when out at a track (like Autocross) where air isn't available and I want to add 5 to 8 PSI, I would like to carry a portable....and do not want one of the cheap inflators you can find at KMART.

So...
Steve D0X, probably close to what you recommended.
cas951 - I may also look into the Pancake...if it's portable and I can use it away from the house
Dave S. - Superflow MV 50 is also a contender (from design, it looks like it may have been produced by VIAIR? Looks just like the VIAIR 400P
