DeltaRed,
Is this inverter and compressor to go in a truck or car? That would help determine what you need. By airing up tires in the field do you mean in a farming situation or traveling on the road?
I agree with everyone else. Two horsepower is not a small compressor to run with an inverter and would suck a battery dry in no time even with the engine running. I use 6 gallon pancake compressors for most things around the farm because my 3650 watt Champion generator will run them. It has enough output to air up most tractor tires and is easily lifted.
Like MarkB_MI said a twelve volt compressor would be better and you can get some that put out enough to do some good for $75-$125. That is a lot cheaper than a high watt inverter and would not require wiring high amp cables to your vehicle, Now they might not be powerful enough to air up a tractor tire from scratch, but might be enough to top one off.

In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
