Anyone have any experience with the SENCO PC1010 Compressor? It’s a 1hp, 1gal, oil-less, quiet, lightweight compressor. I’m looking for a portable compressor for finish/brad nailing in remodels and odd-jobs, and this one seems like a pretty nice unit. Would appreciate any thoughts/comments/opinions…

Your sure you don't mean 1/2 hp? I got that compressor and its not bad for just brad nailing, don't go trying to shot a framer with it.
It will run a lot if your trimming out a house but for just little stuff its fine. I use mine mainly for my micro pinner. I use the Pasloade airless guns for my main nailers.
If I was trimming out houses like back in the day I wouldn't want just this compressor, not big enough to handle constant nailing.
I like the size and weight of it though, cant beat that.

It is sweet for punch work, especially on the 3rd floor<G> Hey, pocket doors can't come off the track if they're nailed open
I wouldn't want it as my only compressor but for small jobs it can't be beat for weight and size. Like Biteme said it's great for punch work.
It's relatively quiet also.
