I came across this air pump a few months ago after reading about it on another site and ordered one. It's actually pretty decent. Its not completely tiny but not too bulky and will easily fit in the trunk. It is cordless and can inflate up to 150psi. I have used it a few times this winter as the tires on my pickup (275/60R20) were a bit low a few times. It worked quite well and was even a bit faster than my Ryobi cordless pump I had been using. It can be set for any psi and once reached, automatically shuts off. It also has a built in light along with a USB port so it can be used in a pinch to charge up a phone. If you have Amazon Prime, it is listed on sale from $59.99 down to $39.99 for the red dial version is $29.99 for blue dial. But the red dial version also has a 50% discount on it as of tonite so $20 more off. Here is a link.


The coupon is also good in case you wish to buy more than one so each will have 50% off. I also purchased a quick release extension hose as the hose that comes with the pump screws onto the tire air valve and is a bit short. The extension hose screws right into the cordless air pump. Here is a link to the hose.


One other thing to mention was at the time I bought mine, there was a card in box that mentioned to register the pump on their website and it would have a 3 year warranty. When I did that, the company sent an email asking me to do a review on Amazon and once review goes live, reply to the email by sending a screen shot of review. They then emailed me a $30 e gift card for Walmart back. I checked the e card number and pin on Walmart and it's an active gift card. Not sure if they are still doing this now though but worth mentioning just in case.

Well it looks like the coupon may already be gone for that one but is still showing up on this one for now. Same unit, but it comes with quick release hose instead of screw on.

I bought the same type of inflator from Costco for 40 bucks. Have used it several times and it works great. I also ordered from Amazon a pack of 40 tire plugs. I carry it all the time on the bike.

I finally broke down last year before my last trip and also ordered a patch kit off Amazon.


It comes with specialized tools as well as 15 vulcanized plugs. It's been many, many years since I have had a flat but figured it is good insurance to have it along. Especially if it were to happen way out in the middle of nowhere where I find myself often or on a weekend and everything is closed.

I have gotten way more use out of inflators over the years especially on trips. Regular driving I like to run the rears around 22psi. But if towing my cargo or camping trailer, I bump up rear shocks and rear tires. After unhitching, I like to drop it back down until I will be towing again. Also when ending up in locations where I will be riding twisties for the day, I like to bump up the tires a few pounds then as well. I then let it back out the next day when the tires have cooled off. Having an air pump with is a lot easier than having to run up to a gas station hoping they have an air pump or looking for quarters to use it. This pump is a lot more convenient than the 12v plug in compressor I used to drag along or my Ryobi cordless. And since it has the automatic cutoff and runs on its own, I don't really have to stand there holding the trigger and both rear tires will have close to the identical same pressure. Not the case with the Ryobi but could get close.

I just ordered the blue lighted one with the extension hose, after applying my bonus points the whole thing was less than$9.00. Thanks for the link and info.

Make sure to follow the info in box about registering for the warranty just in case they are still doing the $30 Walmart e gift card. That makes it an even better deal if they are.
