If you are wanting to use the compressor for auto body air tools, you need a 220 volt unit. Body tools and impacts use alot of air that most small 110 volt compressors can not keep up with. You need to be looking for a compressor with a 2 stage pump and 220 volt. There are different phase converters (Rotary, Static & Digital) and they all vary in price dependent on the application and HP requirements. To me it would be more trouble than it's worth. Keep it simple.
