So I'm onto getting an Account, the Husky ( or the like) it's a 120v unit. Looking to run nailer, impact etc on it. No die grinders etc. I know the regualtor thst comes on them aren't good. Is it worth upgrading the regualtor? If so to what?

I have an ARO 2000 unit here but I don't know how much pressure loss or cfm loss I'd get, if any at all.

What ya guys think

Any 1/4 full size regulator will have plenty of flow
This. Most regulators will be fine for light duty use. The impact can benefit from a bit more flow but odds are with a small 120v compressor you'll be restricted somewhere else more than the regulator.
