We've got a 1.8kw compressor but when we tried it on someone's 2.8kw genny it failed to start it, it would just trip the genny.

We were then also told that you need around twice as much power to run a compressor, this is because you need extra power to initially start up a compressor.

We’ve now brought a smaller compressor, 1.1kw, and are going to check that it does run on a 2.8kw genny.

Oil free compressors require less power, so if you decide to get a new compressor as well I would recommend an oil free one.
