Fantastic product – arrived on time and performs really well.
There is a minor caveat with this product: the clip-on nozzle tends to “grab” the air valve quite firmly and can be difficult to remove so much so that I managed to break the nozzle when removed it. I contacted the sellers to determine if the air hose could be replaced and they advised that this is not possible but offered to provide a complete replacement free of charge. What outstanding customer service !
It really is a good tyre inflator and perhaps the application of a little vaseline or equivalent to the air valve body would ensure that the air hose can be more readily removed.
A big shout out for the sellers: fantastic customer service and your company deserves to do well.
Highly recommended
Currently already bought four successively. It’s an excellent pump, carefully built circuit, durable and does the job. No fear of tubeless tyre puncture on rural road. I’ll strongly recommend.
Hope manufacturer maintains the quality and yes, yes, reduce the price
Packs away well for easy transportation and fits into my boot along with the spare tyre. Good length cable and also the air tube reaches the valve wherever it is located on the rim. Fairly quiet in operation and easy to set required pressure. The built in torch is also a great help in those emergency situations. One minor niggle is coiling up the cable after use and finding some where to tuck in to the pump body to avoid it unravelling.
dead easy to use, quite quite and fast inflating. Highly recommended
Easy to use. Like the torch feature. Great pump to hold and carry around the car.
Quick and simple although cable could be longer for use in camper va
Firstly, when plugged in a cooling fan activates, this will continue to run while the compressor is inflating your tyres as it sucks in cool air from the front vent and out the top at the back, i advise to let the fan run for a minute after use to allow it to cool the compressor down before packing it away, secondly, it has a blue back lit digital display that remembers your last set pressure, and auto shut off when desired pressure is achieved, ( compressor will add 1.5psi over set pressure although this is not shown on the display, this is to allow for air loss during removing compressor pipe) it also has a 3 led light on the front for operating in the dark and has 3 modes, 1-on constantly, 2-blinking mode, 3-sos mode, this compressor inflates rather quickly, faster than most 12v compressors, also comes with its own neat storage bag, I’m very happy with it and highly recommend i
A handy piece of equipment to have and in its own case for easy storage
Easy to use ,small pack away case, value for money.
Very happy with this pump, probably a bit slower than I expected but saves a lot of hard work.
Works excellent and it is easy to use!
Great value for money!
Recommended it!
Performs as described. It has a solid build and quality feel. Comes in a nice little bag that easy fits in the boot. Easy to use buttons and the back lit lcd display will come in handy in the evenings when it’s dark. I love the auto shut off when you have reached the pressure you set. I also like the built in fan and 30 min run time if required. not that you will need it as I topped up all of my tyres in less than 60 seconds each. I Can’t praise this little Compressor enough.
Does everything it’s designed to do. Easy to use controls and easily read display. Brilliant!
Can’t measure accuracy but seems OK, pumps tyre quick, easy to use
This product does exactly what it’s supposed to do. It measures how much air you have in your tire and puts exactly the amount that you set. Easy to use and compact.
This is a really fast inflator. Well worth the price.
We received this compressor very quickly after ordering. Husband is very pleased with it due to 30 mins run time and ease of use. He was fed up with his old compressor cutting out after only checking two of the four van tyres. This unit handles our Transporter T5.1 tyres (215/65R16) with ease, the quick fit valve clamp is much less fiddly than the screw on hoses used on other compressors. He did buy an additional 5 Mtr extension to ensure all four tyres could be reached from the cigarette socket on the van cup holder as our van is LWB. This proved wise as the 3 Mtr cord fitted to the unit doesn’t quite make the distance to the rear tyres. TIP : The cigarette connector on the unit was running the cable OUTSIDE the footings so Hubby managed to carefully slide the cigarette connector INSIDE thus allowing him an easier way to zip tie the cable to the footing for extra security and less “pull” on the cable entry to the compressor body.
From flat (i.e no air), this pumps up your tyre fast & efficiently within 10mins! Another great feature is setting your tyre limit to the recommended setting so as not to over inflat. The dial lights up so you can see in any light condition and there is a built-in touch. Additional items for blowing up bicycle tyres, footballs & pool inflatables.
I purchased this unit to replace a gutless, terrible Ring 601 that failed after a couple of uses.
This unit is so much better, feels like quality and has a proper locking tyre valve connector.
You can dial in your chosen tyre pressure and let the unit get you to that setting and shut off or just power on and watch the dial. I highly recommend this pump . It took around 1 minute to take my commercial tyre pressure from 28 psi to 73psi with no struggle at all and with the pump sitting stable and not jumping about. Also comes with a zip up case.
Really solid little compressor that comes with a carry case and a decent length of power cable so you can reach all four wheels, something you’d think would be standard but isn’t always. You can dial in the pressure you want and let it get on with it and there’s a cooling fan built-in to keep it cool while it’s working. That isn’t usually for very long because it’s quite fast and capable and gets your tyres up to pressure at speed. It feels like a solidly built unit, with some weight, but it’s quite small and easily packed in your car.
You also get a set of different nozzle adapters so you can inflate a range of items but you obviously have to be very careful with toys and more fragile items. The one thing to be really aware of is that it slightly over-inflates, going about 1psi over the limit you set, that’s presumably to compensate for air escaping as you disconnect the air line but that extra pound of pressure could be enough to burst or damage a fragile item so proceed with caution. A burst beachball wouldn’t be the end of the world but a burst paddleboard that cost hundreds might be the end of a fun day-out. That reservation aside it’s just a really handy and affordable compressor and well worth a look.
This tyre inflater is worth the money. It is easy to use and saves my time and money as I no longer need to go to the petrol station and pay for air.
This air pump is so so powerful it’s pumped up the tires within seconds are in 10 minutes depending on how large the tires are different things from bike tires to car tyres which I find absolutely fascinating, it is very easy to use and plugs into the wall so you always get the best quality pump. I would highly recommend.
It even comes in a very handy little travel bag.
I was looking in a well known car accessories shop at small compressors for some silly money. This one was way cheaper, good long cable, nice little carry case, easy to pack away and it reinflated my tyres without any drama. It’s perfect for my needs
simple to use compact plus comes in a zip up bag to keep all tidy
Arrived on time & was a little bit smaller than tho , but will give it a go, works well & not that noisy like my old one & pressure gauge is spot on as tested will petrol station one to double check great light , so going on all the above would recommend to anybody looking for one of these five stars
Well made, 12 volt powered inflator. Digital readout and works from any car 12 v accessory socket. Pressures can be preset and it comes with a series of adaptors (e.g. balls, inflatables) as well as cars. Comes in a well made zip-up stoarge sleeve. Recommended and good quality engineering.
I’ve had this kind of thing previously and the digital pressure gauge has always failed. This one seems fine so far and I’m happy with it. The desired pressure can be set and the pump switches off when it’s reached – this has also worked well. It’s a bit noisy, but I imagine they all are
The unit turned up in a box which had clearly been opened without a security seal. Took the unit out the box and the screen was scratched and didn’t work. However contacted TT who responded quickly and I decided to change the fuse and it worked fine. Hats off to Tower Top However due to the faff of sending the unit back it was easier to try and resolve the issue. Clearly someone else had tried the unit, blew the fuse and sent it back scratches and all, but it’s a trye pump so if it continues to work then I’m not too bothered.
Rather heavier than I thought, but I guess that’s no bad thing. Happily, haven’t had to use it yet, but looks as tho’ it will do the job. Nicely presented.
Came on time easy to use great tool to have
Very impressed by how compact this unit is, perfect for storing in the boot, and very happy with the ease of use and the effectiveness. It seems to be really well engineered, with a fan cooling system to allow longer use, light for night time use, slight over-inflation beyond target to account for loss of pressure when removing. All works really well and seems built to last.
As soon as you plug it into the 12vlt socket a fan starts running to keep unit cool digital read out is clear and dialling in the preset pressure is easy and automatically shuts off when reached , it’s fast and quite and it also looks good.
The bag that it comes with keeps everything all together.
Very pleased with the performance and getting it at a reduced price.
Not bad for the money, pressure setting a bit fiddly, but inflation of a flat tyre in quick. So over all not all ok.
Great product, does exactly what you looking for. Easy to use with high accuracy.
Good product
Sturdy well made heats up quickly but does the job very well. Would buy again and easy to use.
Good long lead gauge easy to set up and read and accurate quite robust good purchase
Liked this product soon pumped a flat tyre will recommend this to anyone
Settings match tyre pressures on car. Set pressure, plug in switch on – done
The tyre pump arrived safely, and it comes neatly packed inside a well-illustrated retail box, nice enough to be given as a gift.
The overall quality of the pump is very good, it seems well made, the plastics feel fairly durable, the screen is clear to read, there are four silicone feet to reduce vibrations and help keep it in place and in general I’m quite pleased with the quality of it.
It features two big buttons; one to power it on and the other to turn the light on. Once plugged in you just set the PSI using the turn dial and press the power button to start the inflation. The inflator will automatically stop just over the pre-set pressure to allow for a slight loss of air when you remove it off the valve.
It does an excellent job of quickly inflating your tyre; even my large, wide tyres on my car inflate in very little time. It seems powerful enough to cope with higher pressures, it does start to work hard the higher the pressure, but it never gets to a point where it really struggles. For a tyre inflator it isn’t overly loud, I’ve used much louder ones in the past.
The power cable is long enough to reach any tyre on your car if you use the interior plug socket but if you have a lengthy car like an estate and you use the socket in the boot the inflator won’t reach the front tyres.
Overall, I think this is an excellent, capable little inflator that represents good value for money and it’s easy to use. Much better performance than cheaper tyre inflators and it comes with everything you need to inflate your tyres and/or inflatables like a football, etc. It’s a product I’m happy to recommend and I feel its worth the full five stars, buy with total confidence!
In summary this is appears to be a well-engineered unit where the manufacturers have clearly worked effectively to address the issues of pump-fatigue caused by high temperature and pressure. Whilst I have only had a it a day or so, it feels like it should keep working for a while.
Our tyre inflator recently broke, so I was grateful to have the chance to test this one. It’s great to have a reliable, powerful tyre inflator. You never know when you will need one, and this one has been awesome and had no issues so far.
Pros:
* Smart design features; the dial for pressure settings and digital screen are really cool
* Inbuilt light is a great touch with 3 modes
* Auto cut off at the correct pressure
Cons:
* None
So, first off. The unit itself looks really nice, well designed and sleek, and comes in a little carry case to keep it all contained and looking smart.
Like all inflators it comes with a lighter plug and is very simple to use, just make sure the engine is running when in use. There is a little fan built into the inflator which I assume is to keep it cool when in use.
The digital screen is crisp and clear, making it easy to select the correct pressure. What I did like about this is is when you connect the hose to your tyre valve, it will register the current PSI – this remains present while the machine works. The screen then gives you a real time reading as it inflates the tyre, like a machine would at a petrol station.
Setting the pressure is simple; the dial underneath the screen controls this. The pump has an auto off feature, and an allowance of +0.5 PSI to allow for the loss of air when you disconnect the valve.
It has a light built in, which is great for those night time adventures. I can’t speak for its brightness as it’s the middle of summer, but it’s a cool feature and it has three modes block/SOS/flash. I’m sure it will come in handy, but ultimately hopefully we won’t have to use that feature.
Overall, it’s powerful for its’ size, more compact than my last one and easily better. I’d definitely pay the extra for one that will last like this one, and it’s really quick and makes long journeys less stressful to prepare for – and given you have to pay for air now, I’d rather have this! Hopefully it will last.
Chose this product due to it looking small compact and appearing from the description to be pretty powerful, and it hasn’t let me down. It’s tiny!.
Saw a few people saying the instructions could have been better but I didn’t have an issue with them. Didn’t even read them and nice and easy .
I just wish the power cable was longer so that i could use the socket in my boot and still get to the front tyres.
Part of the pump does get hot, however there is adequate warning/ stickers to inform you of this.
This is very useful to keep in the car in case of a tyre emergency or just on a long journey when you need to make sure your tyres are at the optimum tyre inflation.
This is very quick and easy to use, it’s a case of plugging into your cigarette lighter which powers it and using to your recommend tyre pressures. I found the gauge mainly easy to use and it has the digital display for the ultimate accuracy which makes it a dream to use.
This works well and even has a light for tyre emergencies in the dark and is ideal for any driver to keep in the car. Recommended.
And it is in pretty much every way. Straight off I like the design, it looks rugged and comes in a small carry bag. The cable is wrapped around the base and there’s a slot for the 12V plug underneath. This is digital, and when plugging in immediately powers up, with a cooling fan running, and the display indicates a target pressure and current pressure, the latter being zero if the air lead isn’t attached to anything. The button beneath the display is a rotating knob to adjust the target pressure, and pressing the same button changes the type of reading, to psi, bar, etc.
One the target pressure is is dialled in, and the hose connected, pressing the power button starts the compressor, which stops when the required pressure (or in fact just above it) is reached.
There’s also a lamp on the front, with static, slow flashing and fast flashing options, and it comes with a batch of adaptors for inflatables, presta valves, basketballs and the like. The pressure goes all the way up to 100psi, so it’s pretty good for the majority of cycle tyres too.
This is a very simple device to use, and though it comes with a small manual I didn’t need to look at it to see how it all functions. The current price of 43 is about right for a good quality and accurate 12V electric pump. My old one has been donated to a local charity shop.
A great piece of kit to keep in the car. Works really well, and has very clear instructions. Has helped me out in a time of need!
The only downside was that the target pressure disappears to a tiny size when you confirm it. However the changing pressure as the tire inflates is perfectly visible. It cuts out automatically when programmed pressure is reached.
This is a really good quality tyre inflator/compressor. It is comes with a digital display and works exactly how it should. The machine comes with a clear digital display that is easy to read. Inflating our car tyres was really quick.
ACCURATE DETECTION & AUTO SHUTDOWN: The high-
precision sensor controls the error of the car tyre pump
within +1PSI. The large LCD backlight screen displays real-time pressure value and preset value. You can accurately detect your tyre pressure at any time; Preset an air pressure value, it can automatically shut down when reached to avoid over-inflation.
This is a great quality product that is likely to last many years. It seems to be accurate and we are happy with it.
Great value easy to use. Cut off on inflation is so easy to use.
I keep it in the car for emergencies but not used it for tyres yet. But have inflated a double air bed in 20 minutes. Sturdy article am pleased.
Impressive. I have a similar unit to this but there is no way it feels as good a quality as this one. First thing you notice is the weight for it’s size — while still a compact unit there’s obviously some serious stuff inside the casing — don’t mistake my comment to mean it’s overly heavy as it isn’t, it’s just reassuringly weighty.
Plugging it into the car lighter socket and hit the ower switch and the unit starts up with some fans starting and the display lighting up. The display incidently is superb really clear in fact it’s the best display that I have had on any pump.
Press the pressure button to cycle between the types of pressure calibrations you want to use and then turn the dial to set the required pressure, it’s actually nice to turn the knob to dial in the required PSI rather than be pressing buttons to adjust it.
Once the PSI is set press the power button and away it goes — the speed at which it inflates the tyre is certainly better than my other unit. Once it reaches the required pressure it stops. Now with my other unit the pressure on the dial was always out by a lb or two so I always set the dial to over inflate — the pressure using this one is bang on. I double checked with my tyre pressure gauge and it nailed it. This is exactly what I want from a pump.
It also has a torch function and comes with a set of adaptors for other things and a backup fuse for the unit.
It’s compact so fits in the usual places in the boot of the car.
There is nothing about this pump I can fault considering it’s size and portability – it’s punching above it’s weight.
It does the job I bought it for. It is light, easy to use not that complicated.
This looks and feels like it should last. The materials used a of a decent quality. Simple enough to use. I didn’t even read the instructions it’s that simple to use. By chance, I used it against another make of inflator and the difference was 0.5 psi… no idea as to which, if either was accurate.
The Amazon pictures and description give the technical information you may require.
Useful that it can be used on a range of inflatable items with suitable attachments included.
Love the valve lock device. For me, much better than the screw on type.
As tyre inflators go this 12v inflator works well. It is quite a heavy 12v inflator compared to others I have owned in the past. It is shaped exactly as you would expect a compressor to look, but in miniature. I have used it to inflate my daughters van tyres up to 42psi from only 10psi, as the van has been left standing for quite a few months and also my wife’s car tyres needed just a couple of pounds added.
The compressor performed well, and was surprisingly fast when I left the engine running whilst inflating. There is a light on the compressor for aiding the driver to re-inflate the tyres in the dark, which could come in handy. I found the compressor still moved around whilst inflating, as do all 12v inflators. Even with its weight, the fact there is a piston inside pumping away at considerable speed, means the tyre inflator will not stay in one place and will skip about merrily. Not a great problem however.
The inflator comes with ample length power cord, so it should reach most car/van tyres. Inside the carry bag is a pack of bits containing all you need to pump up footballs, cycle tyres and some children’s swimming pools etc. There is also a spare fuse should it ever be required. A very well thought out kit.
An impressive quality item.
This is the heaviest air pump I’ve had for a car, but in a good way. It’s just as compact, but noticeably heavier, so presumably better quality to start with. It comes in a case, which also helps to keep the cables together, as they’re not so easy to stow away neatly.
As for operation, it’s as easy as any other. Set the digital display to your target pressure, by turning the knob to get to where you want, press and lock the cable on the valve and read the actual pressure. If too low, then press the power switch and wait for it to inflate to the correct pressure. It actually goes 1.5 psi high to allow for cable removal, but that seems a little high to me, unless you’re pretty slow.
The pump has little plastic feet to presumably reduce vibration and movement, although it did still move around quite a bit when inflating. There’s also a light you can use it necessary. The connection to the charger is good and solid. I had a more expensive pump where the connection was so loose as to make it unusable, so this feels perfect.
I checked the pressure with a separate gauge and it was within 1psi, so good enough for me.
The pump also seems a bit faster than I’m used to, although I never inflate from zero. All in all, this definitely seems like a step up in quality from cheaper plastic ones. Time will tell how long it’ll last, but first impressions are certainly good.
Pumps of the van tires with no difficult. So far so good update it within three months.
I have owned a couple of this type of device in the past but neither of them lasted very long, the latest one broke just a few weeks ago, when I saw this I ordered it as a replacement and thinking that it would likely not last too long but I was very wrong about the quality and hopefully the longevity of this unit.
As soon as I removed the case from it’s packaging I could tell that this was something much better than my older units. This has some serious weight to it for such a compact unit most of which seems to be from a very sturdy air tank to hold the pressure well.
Along with the 12v pump comes a small pack of valve adapters which can be used for footballs, bikes and more, these simply fit into the standard car tyre valve adapter thats ready fitted to the unit. This also comes with a handy canvas carry bag to keep the pump and parts together safely.
The pump unit itself has a variable pressure presetting and a torch / flashing light which can be used in an emergency. Once plugged into a vehicles 12 volt socket the cooling fans come on and the display lights up. From then the air pressure can be preset to the required level for your vehicle so that the pump will automatically stop as soon as the correct pressure has been reached.
I pumped one of my cars tyres up to 32psi using this unit until it auto stopped, I then checked the pressure again using my larger air compressor and the pressure was spot on, so this does seem to be an accurate unit unlike the cheaper versions that I owned previously.
The only downside is that the unit comes lovely and tidy with the air hose and power cable neatly tucked away but when I had finished testing it, trying to get the parts tidy again was a loosing battle, lol, luckily it all still fits nicely into the case anyway.
As I have a larger compressor that I use at home when checking my tyres, I have put this into the boot of my car to be used in the case of an emergency or for an unexpected flat or low tyre.
Great quality air pump torch combo.
Recommended.
Well featured pump, with great built in options such as auto limits, but hre very poorly written instruction manual makes usage annoying where it shouldnt be.
Once you have got used to the set up, it’s very easy and accurate to use, and is packaged neatly in a bag for storage in the boot.
This is a really fantastic pump. I used to have a 20 pump and this is about 10x the speed. My car has huge tyres but they go from 26 to 32 PSI in less than 10 seconds. Also the fact it remembers the target pressure when unplugged and plugged back in is handy.
The only downside is it doesn’t auto switch off when it reaches the target pressure but as it’s so quick you won’t mind just standing there for 10 seconds.
Twice as fast as my regular inflator. This inflator is slightly noisy and heavier than my old one but it fills tyres so quickly so I can’t fault it.
It is accurate and easy to use. So far have used it to fill car tyres and my brother’s bike tyres. Will be filling the Paddle pool with it later on.
Ordered this air compressor to use at home for air in my car and families cars. Plus our cycles and inflatable dingy etc This product is so easy to use and inflates quickly . Comact size and very portable to lend to friends and family . Good quality machine and price is very reasonable. I have purchased an adaptor kit so i can pump up my inflatable kayak which takes a wider nozzle. Overall I highly recommend this air compressor.
A good quality pump that doesn’t over heat when used on bigger tyres
I bought it since my previous pump was broken and I was fed up with pumps that were too noisy and slow. This tyre inflator works well and is easy to use!
Advantages:
1. The inflation speed is very fast, my tyres went from 25PSI to 36PSI in less than 1 minute.
2. It has an oversized backlit display that will read the actual tyre pressure when you connect the pump to the tyre, it’s quite accurate.
3. It has a knob you turn to set the pressure which is much easier and quicker than the push type. Just set the target pressure you want and push the start on and the pump will inflate to the desired pressure and turn off automatically. The pump remembers the set pressure even after power is removed so next time just plug it into cigarette lighter socket, connect to tyre, turn on and pump will inflate tyre properly and turn off.
4. It has a led light with three light modes, which is very convenient at night.
5. The quick-attach coupler is vastly superior to the screw on type I have on another emergency pump.
6. The product comes with an excellent quality waterproof handbag, so you don’t need to worry about the loss of accessories and storage.
The lights work great, but you have to cycle through all 3 modes to turn it off, which is of course a minor issue.
Overall, great value for money, five stars!
