I guess I switched from the AC with aluminum tank version to the DC steel tank version.
I guess you could use air-on-demand compressors with no tank and minimize your risks.
Anyone with an air powered horn runs the risk of a tank problem, since you're going to leave the tank pressurized all the time, in the event of needing your horn. The more the compressor runs, the more it will fill the tank with condensed water.

I use "disposable" tanks for my air horn. Only turn it on before a cruise. I use a 20lb propane tank. Works great and can swap it out for cheap every 6-8 years. :-)
