> 24 hourThis is a nice, little inflator. Its weight and shape allow one hand operation while the other hand secures the air chuck, or adapter. Mine arrived with 100% charge! Adjustments are easy and the controls are intuitive. It makes about the same noise as other small inflators and may be quieter than many. It comes with a carry pouch, charging adapter and inflation adapters for balls and bicycles. It seems a pretty good unit! Hope this helps!

> 24 hourI would normally be a little reserved about putting a tire inflator and a fairly hefty Li-ion battery pack in close proximity to each other, given the heat that such compact air pumps generate. However, the idea of not having to run a cord from the 12V vehicle socket to the tire on the far opposite corner and hope it reached far enough to let me get the inflator connected seemed quite promising to me, given my previous experiences with portable tire inflators. Beyond that, looking at the measurements of this pump and realizing that it was only half the size of my other portable inflators gave me the push I needed to go ahead and order it. When it arrived, I was immediately impressed by the quality of the packaging and the completeness of what was included. Everything I needed was there, from the charging cable (not excess info length-wise, for sake of full power transfer during charging of the batteries), the extra tips for sports balls and such, the carrying pouch with drawstrings, the unit itself, the detachable air hose, to the fairly thorough instruction manual (includes multiple languages). Everything stows cleanly in the carrying pouch and the inner barrier means that the miscellany doesn’t get mixed in with the pump and hose during transport. The battery pack arrived mostly charged, but I still plugged it in just to be sure it was fully topped up. Once that was done I undertook my quarterly top-up of the vehicle spare tires, checked the fill level on the car tires and topped-up where necessary, and even refilled the tires on our mountain bikes which had gone flat over the winter. Doing all of that only required me to recharge the unit once, and only used a portion of the power from the second charge. Charging the pack from empty took a couple hours, which seemed good as devices with “fast charge” make me nervous when they have large Li-ion battery packs like this unit does. Slow charging is healthier on the batteries, so that was a good sign that the manufacturer put some quality into their product. Where my other tire inflators get uncomfortably hot at the compressor output as they’re being used, the casing on this unit is such that the outside barely got warm, other than where the air hose screws into the brass compressor connector on the end of the unit. It makes sense that it would get hot there as that’s a fully metal connection. It wasn’t hot enough to burn me, but was sufficiently warm as to cause me to let it cool completely before plugging it back in to recharge. The brass connector end of the hose is protected with a rubber grip on the rotating part and some plastic heat shrink dressing on the metal crimp end of the hose itself, but I still wouldn’t let a child use it unsupervised. The individual presets are helpful in getting into the right range of pressure for what you’re inflating, and the +/- keys allow adjustment within each range. I appreciated the free-for-all range at the end of the selection cycle, as it allowed me to raise the preset pressure to the 60 PSI that the spare (donut type) tires require. Those took a little longer to refill (they had gotten quite low), but the inflator was up to the task and after several minutes the desired pressure was reached and the unit shut off the compressor automatically exactly as I expected. I did note that the instructions cautioned (quite correctly, from what I understand about Li-ion rechargeable batteries) that the inflator not be left for long periods in vehicles, given how hot they can get inside. Based on that, I’ll definitely bring the inflator on trips with me, but I’ll store it in a climate-controlled area the rest of the time (when I’m not using it). I want the batteries to last a long time and taking care of them just makes sense to me. I appreciate that the inflator can be used as a USB charger in a pinch… that’s a nice touch that was unexpected. The flashlight/strobe function is also nice to have included, given that you don’t know when or where you might find yourself needing to use the inflator. With all those “pros”, I had only one “con” out of the whole experience: in direct sunlight, the display gets washed out and is difficult to read unless you shade it with your hand or a hat or something. That said, because it’s cordless, you can set the desired pressure on the unit in an area where the display is easy to see and then go over to your vehicle to do the actual inflation. Not a biggie, but something to be aware of. I expect it’s probably an effort to minimize the power the display is drawing so that as much as possible is available for the air compressor, so it’s understandable. Based on my experience using this inflator, I’d absolutely recommend it to anyone who didn’t want to have to mess with cords (or extension cords). This inflator definitely represents a convenience factor over any of the corded models. The price, while not super low, seems quite appropriate given the capabilities of the unit and the quality of batteries that is required to meet the fast current draw demands of the air compressor. I expect we’ll see these units getting popular over the next year or two and that name brand version of them will bear significantly higher price tags. We’ll see how that prediction goes.

> 24 hourConvenience, the name of the game. So excited for this! It took care of a bike tire and basketball within minutes ! It pumped air very quickly. I find the preset setting convenient. My 13-year old operated it. This is a testament to how easy it is to operate. She didn’t have to research what the PSI is for her ball and tires. It’s a convenient tool to have in your car especially on trips out of town.

> 24 hourWhat a great little pump. Not only is it quite small (so portable) but it doesn’t have to have a power cord running to it, making it much easier to use. I’ve put this in my car emergency kit after testing and I am happy to have it. I even pulled it out to recharge my phone when a long conversation caused it to run low. Since you can also charge it with a standard car adapter I ever have to take it out of the car. It’s quieter than the plug in emergency pump I had and far slicker in design. It comes with multiple aor adapters though I wish the tire hose was a bit longer. Perfect for the garage or emergency kit easy to take wherever you need it and on top of all that it acts as a power bank for all my tech toys if needed. That’s security worth the price I think.

> 24 hourI go by the adage of one can never have too many tools. The mindset includes portable air compressors. My first one burned out right after multiple uses on a road trip. We had a very super-slow leak and no tire places along the way on a Sunday. I did get one that didnt require using the cigarette lighter eventually. It is very handy to have, but I am not content with having just one for emergencies. This one is nearly twice the size of the other one with a much higher capacity, but the other one is no slouch either! It came with a full charge! The light is just enough to see what one is doing in low light. The power bank ability is a wonderful bonus! It comes with everything needed to inflate vehicles, bikes, and basketballs. The selection icons are displayed clearly just like the remaining charge. It even has a storage bag!

> 24 hourI am a car guy - lifelong car guy. I have a LOT of tools. I do NOT fall for gimmick tools. I have a big air compressor. A 1951 Devilbiss two stage that I restored myself. I am into air compressors, and kind of snobbish about my air stuff. Yet these GOOLOO portable pumps are so good that I have ended up two of these little gems. They are just very very handy. I keep them in my vehicle and my wifes vehicle, along with a tubeless tire repair kit. They get the job done with no fuss and have a lot of extra bells and whistles, like #1 VERY VERY ACCURATE - I checked pressures on this device against a laboratory grade Ashcroft 6 dial industrial pressure gauge. (google it - Ashcroft is the top of the top for analog gauges) My particular Ashcroft is a gauge that is manufacturer warranted to be accurate within 1/2 P.S.I. from 0-60 P.S.I. When checked, the GOOLOO pump was exactly in agreement with my analog Ashcroft...as in perfect. Thats very important. This device will outperform your 3.99 pencil type gauge. Set a pressure, put it on the tire, it will fill it to exactly that pressure and auto shut-off. Most people run around with tire pressures way way off, and often too low. Sucks gas, wears out tires, ruins handling and is a downright safety issue. It has never been easier to get your pressures right that with an automatic pump which is highly accurate and can top off your tires with virtually no effort in a few minutes. #2 Handy backup battery pack. IF you become stranded and have a dead battery in your vehicle and a a dead cell phone battery, this has a convenient USB port that functions as a charging station. Given the size of the internal battery, this device could save your bacon both ways - inflating your tire AND recharging your phone. #3 Handy accessories. Does tires great, but also has a sports-ball needle included. No more guessing about the pressure in that football. Maybe the NFL should get a few of these :-) #4 Handy and reasonably bright LED flashlight. Nothing amazing, eh? Yeah, until youre stuck on a lonely dark road in the middle of the night with a flat you just fixed and are airing up. That flashlight will prove to be amazingly handy. Trust me. #5 So youre airing up your tire every couple weeks because you cant find that slow leak. Do you want to do that at a air-bandit at a sketchy convenience store? Or, do you want to do that at your work or in your driveway? Just hook the GOOLOO to your tire, set a pressure, press go, and get in your car while it automatically airs up the tire. You tell me? Kneeling down at an air-bandit, dropping coins in every five minutes? Or precise air pressures in all tires from the comfort of your front seat. Five Stars - highly recommended. I have two of them!

> 24 hourThis tire inflator is very compact, which makes it perfect to pack in your car for emergencies, but it is so slow that’s the only time you would want to use it. I used it to blow up two regular car tires from 29 psi to 36, and it was taking so long on the first tire I decided to go do something else while it worked, but I didn’t time it so I don’t know exactly how long it took. It is very easy to use, the settings are easy to adjust. All you have to do is set how full you want your tire and turn it on; it will stop when the tire reaches that point. The body feels a bit tacky, especially considering the price.

> 24 hourOverall this is a very nice, compact air pump. Its very easy to use, comes with several tips, and can be charged via usb C. My only complaint is that filling a car tire is slow. For it to fill a tire that should have 35 psi, was at 28psi, It took almost 2 minutes to fill it to 32psi. Not the end of the world or anything, Just presenting my observation while filling my back tire on my bolt. Now with that said, that was running off its own battery so this makes this thing so portable to have and use in the field that it being a tad slow is not that big of a deal.

> 24 hourIf Apple made an Air Compressor this would be it!! I am so impressed with this compressor I want everyone to know this is the one to get. From the Apple like packaging, instructions and operation this unit is impressive. It allows you to set the PSI for inflation and it will inflate to that PSI and then stop automatically. The battery life is great being able to fill an almost flat tire with only loosing 1 bar on the charge. On a full charge you can fill at least 4 tires if not more. It come with a nice carrying case and attachments for balls, rafts and other inflatables. With the great Apple like packaging this makes a great gift for anyone in your family. Get one today an you wont be disappointed.
