• The other problem is my garage is only on a 13A supply which basically rules out belt driven compressors as they seem to need 16A

    Not necessarily. I've got a 150l SIP belt-driven compressor at my workshop and a 100l Clarke one at home. Both 3hp, both work fine off a 13a supply.

  • Strangely all the belt driven ones that look similar to that i could find were all 16A rated.

    Do you know where yours came from?

  • In a cold uninsulated prefab concrete garage that would break a 13amp fuse...

    Also noise, it can annoy neighbours.
