    Checking out my options here and wondering if anyone has any clue of the existence of miniature brushless motor DC-powered air compressor? That entails that the compressor be very small, like say 60mm by 40mm or so, weighing less than 80 grams, and able to output highly compressed stream of air (continuous or pulse). Maybe a separate container would be needed to hold the compressed air? Before devising such an item, perhaps this already exists? Thanks for your intuitive input.

    I have seen commercially available air compressors, which are small, actually portable compressors for cars. They work with the cigarette lighter socket. But what you are talking about is very small. I don't know about any usability common enough to make this small capacity type available in the market, but who knows!
    Can't you just make one for yourself, it may be easier to make(I think)!
    Are you sure? This action cannot be undone.

    Thanks for reply aj, yes, the option to build is one I'll have to contemplate. I'll check on portable radial blowers and miniaturize from there as it seems I won't have to deal with compressing air before use after all. ;-)
