12V DC Portable Air Compressor Pump, Digital Tire Inflator

This is my second purchase. I bought my first one of these 5 years ago and it has been a great purchase. It has saved my bacon at least twice, when a tire had a slow leak (and one time a rather fast leak) and I was not anywhere near somewhere with air. Also I can check my tire pressure and top them off at my own home instead of waiting in line at the gas station in terrible winter weather etc. At the price listed, I only have to use it 3 times a year to make up for not paying $2 a fill at a gast station: i have easily used it that much. My first one is still working perfectly after 5 years, but now my teen is starting to drive, so I bought a second one so there will be one in each car, and I can teach my kid how to use it. Great product, easy to use, reliable results 10/10.

Quick review for a product that vastly exceeded expectations. This was my 3rd replacement for cheap tire inflators that failed just a few uses. I had a set of rims that never sealed properly despite being checked and serviced on multiple occasions by different shops, even with new tires mounted. Every wheel would eventually develop a slow leak and I was using an inflator enough to be embarrassed about it. The 3 inflators prior to this purchase failed in just a few uses each. Whether it was the compressor, power cable, or some other electrical issue, nothing around the $20-30 price was going survived what I would even call light use. (Shoutout to Slime products for being some of the most unreliable hardware/junk I've ever used!) I was getting rid of the car and its awful rims, so I really didn't want to spend much on quality. This was my last try before the nuclear option of dropping $100+ on some sort of battery charger/tire inflator combo or behemoth from Milwaukee that I would never use. So I did some very light research and after seeing a few decent reviews, settled on this thing for the same price, 2 years ago. Since then, this solid little unit has done everything I've ever asked of it, and I've asked a lot. It has never failed to air up even a full set of 4 perfectly average, 17" 225/50 tires, from fully flat to overinflated (slow leaks!). Even after pumping up a full set of tires from low pressures, I don't think I ever triggered the overheat protection of the unit. The digital pressure gauge and cutoff feature of the unit are pretty accurate when checked with a manual gauge; I never underinflated a tire in relation to my desired PSI. It's not fast. I don't think you can get --or should want-- fast at this price point, but it is reliable. EPAuto says not to use it on truck tires; I think you probably could if you had to, but singles only, with lots of breaks. They don't seem to have wasted much money on crappy cases that conceal tiny compressors like others at this range, so it doesn't look cool. Oh well, never going to impress anybody airing tires anyway. It has a spotlight, which has come in handy more often than I expected. My biggest knock against the EPAuto is the screw-on valve connector, which can be a pain to use. I always felt like I was losing a pound or two of air while scrambling to disconnect hose quickly, but protip: a little brass schrader quick-connect chuck for $5-10 her on Amazon and that problem is solved. (Or overinflate by a pound or two and stop whining) It comes in a decent little soft carrying case, and it has storage slots for coiling the power cord and air hose. It's crazy, but it almost seems like they cared about how this product might actually be used more than once. It would make a nice little emergency tool for the trunk, even if you own more expensive compressors. I rarely give reviews, but good products at inexpensive prices deserve it.

What I like: 1. Takes less time to add air than other one I had (different brand) 2. Air hose actually screws onto tire valve for good fit. Easy to screw on/off 3.Built-in gauge lets you get exact pressure wanted. Shuts off automatically at pressure you set, but I like to keep an eye on it just in case shutoff doesnt work, so it doesn't overinflate the tire. 5.Gauge is digital, measures and can be set at 1/2 PSI intervl, e.g. 29.5 PSI, 30 PSI, 30.5 PSI and so on 6. Power cord is long enough for a normal passenger car. 7.Has a little plastic carry bag, large enough even if power cord isn't wound tightly. Drawbacks: Built-in flashlight is on whenever unit is plugged in, no way to turn off something I don't need in the daytime. The little fittings to fill beach balls, basketballs etc. come in a tiny plastic envelope, with nowhere to store them, so they're easily lost. I'll just tape them to the pump. Safety comment: Instructions tell you to leave engine on while using this. I'm notgoing toriskcar accidentally going into gear, or someone carjacking wile I'mfilling a tire, or breathing car exhaust. Assuming your battery has a normal charge it's ok to have engine off if just topping off air when weather gets colder, or filling just one flat tire. Durability: I just bought this and topped off my tires. Hope it keeps working. Bought it to replace another brand that worked fine first time, died second timeafter return period had expired. Hint: Comes in 4 colors, which may not be priced the same. One color was cheaperso I bought that one.

I have had this for 5 years and it still works well. Inflates the tires for my CR-V without issue. The PSI gauge is not accurate when first attached to the tire (use a separate tire gauge), but it is accurate when the compressor is turned on and the tire starts to inflate. The power cord is a good length and the whole thing stores nicely in the bag. Not as fast as a pump at the gas station, but it will do the job.

I bought this as safety precaution, and recently used it to pump up some soccer balls. It seems easy to use and has enough power for normal inflating jobs. Kind of hard determining the exact number of PSI to use for each thing you inflate, but otherwise a good tool to have around.

Extremely happy with this purchase. Very easy to use and accurate. I like the flashlight, and that the instructions on how to use are printed on the machine itself. Simply set to desired pressure, screw the nozzle in, and press the start switch. The tire pressure is displayed and it stops when it reaches the set pressure. A great value,and something that every car owner should have in case of an emergency, or just to maintain the correct tire pressure.

Never got the item. Do not purchase.

Fills up car tires from 0 to 32 psi in 7-8 minutes. Does not gets hot as other brands. The only thing getting hot was that air flow pipe.
