> 24 hourI’m amazed at how easy to use this air compressor is. The second day I got it I had to repair a flat on my wife’s car. The doughnut spare was of course down to 20psi. I hooked it up and set it for 80psi and let it chug away. It took a few minutes but promptly shut off at the correct pressure (I double checked with a tire gauge). I then used it to inflate 8 bicycle tires for the summer riding season. On the Schrader valves it did great, going up to 85psi, no problem. The Presta valves on my road bikes were a problem, I couldn’t get more than 50psi in before it would stall out, keep trying to pump but not hit the 95psi required. I’m not sure what the issue was but the inflation hose was getting really hot. I also ran the charge down about half way doing 8 bikes tires. In spite of the problems with the Presta valves, this is a great little item to keep around the shop or in the back of the truck for floats, inner-tubes or whatever. It comes with everything you need in a small box, easy to store. I wouldn’t hesitate to purchase again.

> 24 hourThe best use for this air pump is for small things. It can do things like car tires, but I would only do that in an emergency. It is not fast, and the screen is hard to see in bright light. For stuff like bike tires and sports balls, this is the best. I always wonder how much to inflate a sports ball with this. I just set the psi and go. It auto-stops when it reaches the correct psi. The auto stop is the real winner here. I had to fill up several bike tires, and this made it so much easier. You usually have to fill it and guess when to stop to check the presser. With this, I just looked at the tire, set the psi, and was done. You can also just run it while trying to connect to a flat bike tire and then lock it on once its stiff enough.

> 24 hourI will keep this charged on my boat. When we get to the beach, it will inflate the floats and save my lungs. This device is lightweight and charges easily.

> 24 hourI guess we don’t ride our bicycles often enough because it seems that every time we start to go for a ride around the neighborhood the tires need to be re-inflated. (Or maybe we need new valve stem cores … or some Slime to cure the slow air leaks.) Regardless of the reason, we need the tires aired up. And, of course, my workshop air compressor tank has, also, lost its pressure - since I turn it off in between the infrequent uses I make of it. So we are left waiting for it to pump back up before we can air up the bike tires … and by then we have spent half the time we intended to be exercising on our bikes just fiddling with all the hassles! To the rescue comes this nifty little device. It is a cordless air pump about the size of a half liter bottle of soda. It comes with its own little drawstring storage bag to hold it and it’s accessories. You can set your desired pressure on the large, easy to read (even with aging eyes) digital screen. Attach the relatively short air hose to your tire stem and press the button. It pumps up the tire until the indicated pressure is reached, and stops. Nothing could be easier! I plan to keep this in the trunk of our car … just in case. It has a battery strength display y the o let me know when it needs to be plugged into a USB charger. Its 7.5 Ah battery capacity is rated as being able to inflate 5 car tires. And it can be used as a USB power bank in times of emergency to power other devices. The only negative I have discovered so far is its sound level. It is noisy. But all air compressors are. So we just put on our hearing protection ear muffs when this little guy is operating just like we do whenever I start up the big compressor.

> 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 hourMy dash alert for low tire pressure comes on more than I would like. This usually results in stopping at the gas station to top it off with their compressor. I ordered this for the convenience of solving that problem without making an extra stop. Im not a car person and my husband usually deals with this stuff. However, this tool is easy for me to use. Its a small hand held device that is simple to operate. It solves my tire pressure issues in a matter of minutes without much effort. I love that I can keep it in my car and it doesnt take up much space. The battery life is decent and it lasts a while if you are only topping off the air. The machine itself is well made and easy to use. I love that I dont have to depend on anyone else to help with this issue and I feel very confident using this device. Overall, Im very satisfied!

> 24 hourI own a battery jumpstart pack from Gooloo, so this caught my eye. It claimed to have a (comparatively) massive battery and good speed. Both of those claims seem to be true. This is a compact unit and for its size does a good job putting out air, whether to pump up a ball or tire. It came with cords/hoses to charge and use the pump as well as a small storage bag to keep things organized when you toss it in the trunk. This is great for use in the garage or to keep in the car on a trip. Its easy to use and has four presets for SUVs/cars/bikes/balls, as well as a free-form mode to set whatever unit and pressure youd like. This mode is a bit frustrating because it always defaults to 55 KPA which is not a pressure or unit that I regularly use and it doesnt appear that I can set it to PSI and retain the setting. Its not difficult to change when needed but it seems like an oversight that a user doesnt have this option. Im not going to ding it any stars because it is quick to change though.

> 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 got this from my car tires, but thought Id give it a try on our familys bicycles first. Our bikes dont have the special presta valves, they have standard valves. The part of the hose that connects to the bicycle tire is so tight that it was tough to remove from the first two bike tires I filled. When I tried to remove it after filling the third tire, it ripped the valve stem right out! The inside is also coated with rubber, and thats getting all chewed up, too. Little pieces of rubber were coming out after I filled the first two bike tires with air. I had high hopes for this, because I love my 2 Gooloo jump starters (I got one for me and one for my spouse last year). To be fair, this thing filled the first two bicycle tires quickly, but overshot the pressure that I selected by 3 PSI. I have since you used this on my car tires. It works well. It doesnt overfill the car tires like it did the bicycle tires, probably because the car tires have much greater volume and fill a little more slowly. I find that I have to push the hose in pretty far to get it to fill the tires. Because of this, I also have to use two hands to attach it to the tires valve stem, leaving the body of this device to drag on the concrete and get scratched up.

> 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.
