That's not the issue with flow, RC.

I counted 49 holes in one of the pictures. Not knowing the actual size of the hole, but guessing at 1/16" diameter. At 4.5 psi, probably wouldn't have any trouble getting 10cfm out of the rig.

The restriction appears to be the pressure regulator, which is probably not a high flow unit at low pressure.

The differential volume in the 20 gallon tank between 125psi and 80psi is only 8.2 cubic feet.

Wood,
You can easily calculate watts if you know the amps and the volts. Amps x Volts = Watts

It's best to actually measure these values and you can get a decent meter for about 75 bucks.

Paul,
Thanks for the link.

Maybe I am just explaining it wrong.
