hey swtjlsy sorry about the incomplete info about what i ordered, i actually called Accuair and they overnighted my stuff so today they are suppose to arrive! cant wait to start mounting everything. i sent my tank off to texas so a buddy can do some "work" on it. so slow updates.
so far i have
-- 2 airzenith ob2 compressors
-- 7 gallon aluminum tank
-- accuair e-level w/rocker switch


Needed
-- I-level
-- air line which size would you reccomend?

how Necessary is it to use water traps? I live in WA not humid at all just damp all the time. or is it better safe than sorry?

I would run 3/8 line and the Ilevel is a very cool addition to any set up, sounds as if you are off to a good start, the I-level would still give the touch pad as the one that comes with the E- level jsut on your phone. Let me know if you need any help. Water traps help in any system I would recommend them if you don't have them.

You can use any water trap you can find Accuair does have some for Sale, and you should allows use one per compressor

The e level is self leveling so there is no adjustment also long as the four corner sensors are mount in the same area as each side. there are several members on here who have had them install I have yet to do a LS but if I saw the underside I could help you out. PM when youare ready to get something and I can help with the install.

Is there a limitation on the travel (up and down) with the sensors? Reason I ask is when I do my setup I plan on having the car at stock height for my ride height.

the sensors have a range of travel which mean you want to mount each sensor as close to the mounting point of your suspension travel. It called the pivot point, this where you mount linkage for the height sensor.

Now wouldn't mounting the linkage close to the pivot point also lessen the sensitivity of the sensor detecting a change in height at any particular corner? The closer to the pivot point the less the sensor will move... Are the sensors sensitive enough to see even mm of change in travel of the linkage?
