    Penn State DC2000B on sale for $259.95

    It's almost $100 off the regular price which comes out to $320 shipped. They also throw in a 50'
    hose valued at $40 with purchase. Check it out here

    Since the Delta 50-760 is on sale right now too for about $250.00 shipped, which of the two would you buy? Both have a 1 micron bag but the PSI quotes more HP.

    I'd grab the Penn State. The free hose and higher HP tip the scale. Being that the Penn State runs on 220V that is the way that I'd Run it. If the higher voltage is a problem for your shop it would make me consider the Delta.

    I don't mind hearing it, but keep it to yourself if it stinks.

      I think its mainly a 220 vs 110V consideration.
      If you have or plan to have 220V available ten get the Penn state, it is bigger and more powerful.
      If you have 110 and don't want to spend the extra bucks to have 220V installed, then the Delta is your only choice of the two.

        The Penn State seems to be able to run on either voltage but a 2HP motor of 110v would probably require a dedicated line anyway. Running the same motor on 220 vs 110 it has been my experience that when set up for 220v the motors tend to start faster and run cooler with the same load. My 2 hp compressor is capable of using either voltage but during the summer it tends to blow its breaker when set for 110 after converting to 220v never blew another breaker.
