Doc,

You have a few options. I don't think that the ARB solenoids will actuate with 6 V, but there are a few companies that make mechanical "toggle" switches for small pneumatic systems, so they could be used. Then you need an air source:

1) You could use an onboard air system like Tim Holloway used.

2) You could use a portable compressed CO2 supply - see powertank.com.

3) You could try to locate a 6 V compressor, but I am not aware of a supplier.

It is definately doable. If it were me, I would use a power tank and the mechanical switches. I think that would be a clean setup and the power tank would provide thousands of actuations as well as provide plenty of power for airing up tires and running air tools.

Good luck, let me know if you have any other questions!
Dan
