ruatin: as Glennster noted, you can run an impact off from one of the little pancake compressors--I did exactly that while helping a buddy do a brake job on his daughter's car yesterday at his place. The down side is that you end up waiting while the compressor "catches its breath"--fine for a shade-tree job but not acceptable in a shop setting. As I noted in your previous post, the better cordless impacts have pretty much taken over many jobs from air impacts in the last 5 years or so--a trend that will probably continue as batteries get even more powerful and longer-lasting. They've already done so in many professional shops, though that also assumes that they have other tools (larger impacts, long breaker bars, a torch set, etc.) available for really tough jobs beyond the capability of their cordless impacts. They're also more expensive to maintain--more moving parts, batteries to buy, electrical in addition to mechanical components to replace, etc., but the trend is most definitely toward cordless impacts due to their handiness--no cord or hose to drag around is a real plus in a busy, crowded shop and handy in a home setting as well.
