Air Compressor Timer

[Woj]

This has always been one of my fears about leaving the compressor switch on. I'm amazed at how hot the whole unit gets when I'm blasting parts and it runs almost continuously. I worry about the damage that could happen say if a hose breaks and it decides to run until something bad happens. Since my garage is detached, the only way I'd know it is running is to be near the garage.

I make a conscious effort every time I leave the garage to make sure the switch is off.

I like the timer idea.
