Subject: [Solo2atlanta] Air compressor settlement
I was thumbing through a National Geographic yesterday for the first time in
like 10 years, and there was a full page ad for people to claim compensation
if you bought an air compressor from certain manufacturers between 1996 and
2004.
Seemed odd that it was in NG, but probably that was a legal way to post the
settlement notice, and if they put the ads in Car & Driver, Autoweek,
etc.... there'd be too many claims.
I bought a Porter-Cable air compressor from Lowes a couple of years ago, and
it was manufactured by Devilbiss, so it looks like I'm going to get a choice
of $50 worth of air tools.
Seems like there was a horsepower rating war on air compressors that led to
this settlement that is supposed to be official in July.
Check out the web site where you can file a claim...
www.aircompressorsettlement.com
...as there are a ton of brands that qualify for the $50 tool package:
Campbell Hausfeld
Husky
Devilbiss
Porter-Cable
Ingersoll-Rand
Craftsman
Matco
Snap-On
I'm gonna get me either an air ratchet or a spray gun... I guess sometimes
you can fight city hall.
