Ez to operate, secure connection to valve, set the desired psi & presto automatically shuts off after reaching preset limit! Plan to buy one to keep in the car for an emergency.
Works very well. Used it to raise the pressure on a car tire at 27lbs to 35lbs and it only took about 2 minutes. Very happy with the purchase.
This little air compressor works great. We use it for our cars and it’s plenty strong enough. The company was really helpful when I was missing a cord to send one quickly and follow-up to make sure it worked properly.
This compressor is awesome. Sturdy, portable, and made very well.
Quiet and lightweight. Fast as well.
So far a winner.

I tested out on a bike. It is easy to operate and I can set the target psi. However, I did not check the air pressure with a tire gauge. I hope it will last. So far, I am happy with the product.
Very pleased with the unit. Topped off the car tires fast. Nice compact unit stows nicely in the car. Only thing I would change is to include a ditty bag to carry all the parts, but a large ziplock bag does fine.
Pleased with my purchase. I have only used it once. Very easy to use. I’m just a bit concerned because the clamp that attaches the nozzle to the tire is made of plastic. Does not look very sturdy and could break easily. Time will tell!
I found compressors that use the car electric system to be unreliable. Since I usually charge at home. this is much better!
I have been using Vaclife products for quite sometime now. The earlier version of inflator that I had bought from them was working fine until my spouse broke it. Hence I went with this one. This is even better than the one I had used before for following reasons.
– easy to use, highly intuitive and portable
– has both chargers – ac/dc
I have used this on my golf cart a few times when deciding what tire pressure to run as well as airing up my tires for the colder months. It has perform flawlessly and is easy and quick to use. Have an AC and DC cord is great also as it can be use in emergencies on the side of the road.
Works great, ideal for bike tires or golf cart tires.
It’s a well thought out product with everything included to remove all hassles for those who don’t want to pump air in public even once in five years.
This one is actually a gift for a friend, but I have one and they are so easy to use. No more having to go to a service station on a low tire or calling a neighbor to bring their big air compressor over. Keep in mind, this is not meant for trucks, just cars and “medium” SUVs. I have an economy car and it’s great for that!
filled 4 19″ tires that were 6 lbs low on air in under 10 minutes. Auto shutoff is really nice. I used 120 volt adapter because my vehicle, like many these days, does not have a cigarette lighter socket.
I was hesitant ordering this little machine due to past experience, but it proved to be: easy to use, the cord is long enough, once you set it up it stops when it reaches to preferable air tire pressure. I just love it because I don’t have to go to a gas station to do the work , especially in cold weather. It also can be used via an electric outlet.
I didn’t have a portable air compressor for one of the cars and sometimes in the garage it’s nice to be able to use AC power. This does both power sources and with the digital readout and auto inflate to a programmed pressure? Awesome. Great little unit! (that’s what she said)
Have used several times. Works as promised. It does take a while. But it gets the job done every time.
Love this portable tire pressure compressor . Very easy to use. Just set the pressure that your tire is to be filled to on the compressor , place the connecter on tire valve and start. The compressor stops when the set pressure is reached.
It’s so easy to use. You just input your target psi (i.e. 32psi) and press start. The compressor will stop itself after it reaches the target. It’s fast, too. I got this model because it has the 120V outlet plug option. I’m really impressed this small unit works so well.
Purchased to be used for putting air in the tires of my ebike I bought earlier this year. But I also recently used it to put air in my car tires when the pressures changed after the recent temperature drop, and it worked great for that as well. Super lightweight, compact, easy to use I highly recommend.
Easy, powerful, and portable! I inflated all very deflated 8 car tires on two cars in one day. I also inflated a soccer ball with it. It is super easy to use, lightweight, and so much more convenient than getting air somewhere. This is the one!
Customer service was outstanding (Lily)! I’m a snowbird so both of my cars soot for an extended period of time in dramatic temperature changes. This Vac makes my life easier knowing I can adjust tire pressure simply and safely.
The product shipped missing the power cords.
Emailed the help email and was contacted by the wonderful Lily who went above and beyond to help with all my issues and even confirmed that I received a working replacement with all the pieces.

This tire pump works exactly as I hoped it would. Simply set the desired pressure, start the pump, and it shuts off when done. Then simply connect to the next tire and hit start because the last pressure is remembered. I am very happy with this purchase.
I liked this so much that I bought 2. I’ve found it to be far more reliable – many other inflators that are Amazon-favored in this price range seem to lose their power or die based on frequent use. One I’ve had for several years, never have or will repurchase another. Also, customer service (Lily) really is amazing. I lost the AC wall plug and emailed them to request a replacement. I assumed I would be charged – they sent it free. Couldn’t be happier!
Very simple to use,husband had it out of the box and airing up his tire in less than 5 mins. The display is easy to read, simply snapped on to the stem,it sat solidly on the ground despite a curious cat nudge, auto shut off adds to the ease of use. Purchasing a 2nd one to keep in my vehicle.
I love this electric pump. I just have to plug it in, attach it to the tire stem valve, push the power button and that’s it. It takes a few minutes to inflate the tire, but it turns off automatically. I would definitely recommend this pump for those who have bikes and or ebikes. I haven’t tried it on a car tire yet, so I don’t know how well it would perform. That’s the reason I gave it 4 stars. Also, I’m not sure how long it will last, but for now I’m enjoying the ease of use of this pump.
I have used this tire inflator to adjust tire pressures for my vehicles during the change of seasons in New England, super convenient. I also used it to inflate a car tire that had almost no pressure, it handled inflating it with zero issues. The only thing I noted is that the pressure gauge in my unit seems to read about 1.5 psi low which is not a big issue as long as I factor it in when setting the desired pressure before starting the inflator. I would recommend this tire inflator to a friend.
This this is awesome! Tells me the psi when hooked up and then you set PSI you want and press 1 butto
Had a very minor issue with a missing part. Customer service went beyond amazing to take care of it. I particularly like the auto shut off feature when the inflation has reached the target pressure.
Easy to use. Worked so much faster then a hand pump. Too old for that anymore my trike bicycle has three tires, so became too hard. This little guy worked great.
It fells the car tires in the golf cart tires
For car or wall, with backligh, set pressure, easy like that.
Para cenizero de carro o casa, con luz en la pantalla, programa la presion y listo, muy facil de usar.
I had problem with pump rather it dflation rather than increasing but this company responded to my problem by sending new pump. Overall I would rate this pump 5 stars. Accurate and easy to use. I wil bring trips for car as well. I curretly use on my bike tires.
Light doesn’t work. Handle moves for no good reason. Buttons are small and hard to read. However, overall it does its job well.
I had a flat tire; my boy’s bike had empty tires; we had soccer and basketballs that needed more air. We were concerning about flat air during our long road trips. Now, all these concerns have been solved by this pump, it changes everything. Would highly recommend!
The price was more than I wanted to pay , buy the line can be long for free air at local gas station so saving time should make up for it. Worked well.
Works great, easy to operate and doesn’t take up much storage space
Very quick/easy to use. It came without any cords, so I e-mailed customer service and another was sent out immediately.
Does a good job for airing up motorcycle tires, use it once a week. The auto shutoff is not super accurate but close enough, it always inflates about 1 psi over. easy to use and reliable. Having the auto shutoff is a nice feature.
Used on large wide set of bike tires. It is much faster than my last one
Just what I needed for my lawn equipment. No more lugging out the big compressor for small jobs.
This is a must have in a garage!
What I like: pressure measure in different metrics, compact, stops automatically when getting at the define pressure level, can be used for cars, bikes, eBikes, soccer/football etc.
It stopped working after 2 month of purchase. I only used it for bicycles and hardly started using it in June and broke in August. I contacted the manufacturer and they asked for a video of it for investigation. Shortly after the decided it is manufacturer error and shipped me a replacement right away. They kept in communication with me to make sure replacement was working to satisfaction. Good customer service there for sure.
I am very very happy with the service I received from Lily. Some how I lost the 110v power cord. Since my car lighter socket does not work I needed the house power cord. I contacted The company by E-mail and was promptly and courteously taken care of. Upon arrival of the 110v power cord I pumped up my bicycle tires to 40 psi. It shut off right at the 40psi reading. I tested my tires with an air gauge and it read 40psi. So the pump is very accurate too. As a retired Mechanical Engineer I can recommend this company and the pumps design. It is well designed and very useful. Also the instruction manual was easy to read and follow. This is a great product!!! Every best Wish, Harry Lyga
Works quickly and the automatic setting allows you to step back when inflating a sketchy tire.
I liked the first one I bought so much that I bought another. Relatively lightweight and quiet, it is efficient and compact.
What makes this air compressor different to the others I looked is the set point, you can set the desired pressure and it turns off when it reach it. It is also super nice I can plug it to the wall socket, this makes it very flexible for other uses and no need to have a vehicle around!
Seems to work just fine. I haven’t used it a lot, just a couple of times.
I’m happy I purchased this product. Much easier and quicker to use than the air pumps at the gas station. Auto-shutoff at the desired psi or pressure.
This product makes it SO easy to check/adjust vehicle tire pressure. One less thing to have to worry about.
This is a good value tire inflator, You can use in on 110v or car battery. In addition you can set it to the pressure you want and it will cut off at that pressure.
Smart pressure pump that helps you pump and auto shut off and the right pressure. However, cannot be operated for more than 20 min at a time, or else it will overheat.
my cigarette lighter doesnt work in my car this helps in case i get a slow leak or a flat to pump the tire up at the house. It works great for inflating pools toys and sports ball as well, if needed to i would buy again.
Benutze das Gret wenn wir mit dem Wohnmobil unterwegs sind.
Durch den 12v bzw. 230v Anschluss ist es berall einsetzbar.
Pumt genau auf den eingestellten wert auf.
Einziges Manko, ich habe bis heute es nicht geschafft die Taschenlampe die fest mitverbaut ist einzuschalten.?
Man findet nichts derartiges in der Bedienungsanleitung.
Mu es weiter austesten.
Needed a long cable or mains. Used on a long wheelbase van up to 65psi. Works brillia
110V operation means I can keep the noise inside my garage when topping off tires. This is a quality item, and it does everything it advertised. Not cheap but it should last 10 years, so $4 a year is affordable.
Easy to use and to store not very noisy either like others
Bought a couple of weeks back. Used it on car today 18/06/22 for first time. Easy enough to use. Only draw back I found was, that as you attach air tube to tyre valve the unit, no matter how close it is to the car, falls over. Four tyres checked, about eight topples of unit. Other than that it did the job.
If you need to use it the house or outside with electric power, you will need to buy a 10amp fused two pin to three pin UK adaptor. Hadn’t read instructions completely and tried it in a 1amp toothbrush charging adaptor. Needless to say, it blew the fuse. All good now though.
Klein und handlich. Das Kabel knnte lnger sein ,ich habe eine Verlngerung benutzt.
used this pump once and found it top draw. ease to use and ease to set up.like the idea of useing the plug into a socket at home,you dont need to start the car and use the car battery. realy good.
excellent product….used to inflate car tyres.
Because my ability to grip things, I have found inflating tyres at a garage quite difficult.
(I have had to ask for assistance from fellow garage users)
This product was much easier to attach to the tyre valve so makes life so much easie
i used for car.is noisy but fast. i like it!
cleans the garden slabs beautifully, very compact, and easy to use.
So quick. Brought it for my mobility scooter pumped from flat to 50 psi in less than a minute highly recommend
Does the job well kept a slow puncture tyre inflated until able to get it repaired – handy tool to have in the car – could do with attachments for balls, airbeds etc but thats only a mild criticism as its an excellent emergency piece of equipment don’t know how accurate it is but seems near enough
In my experience, cheap air pumps take ages to inflate tyres using the car battery while you run down your petrol and get gassed by the exhaust. This plugs into the mains and inflates the tyres quicker than you cna move it from one tyre to the NEXT. A must buy for the price.
For using outside it’s fine, but at home too noisy
Excellent value for money, tyre inflation very rapid and quiet, also impressed it has both 240 and 12 volt, so can do it from home without using the car battery, if I had one issue which was a very small one it wasn’t on the instructions how to turn the light on, so emailed them and was very rapid with the response very friendly staff and also sorted the issue and now has put it in the instruction manual. Highly recommended
Really like this. Used for car and bike tyres and its much easier to use than others Ive had
The inflator is so easy to use compared with my previous inflator, it is just what I wanted
Description says long power cords, but the A/C cord is very short so you’ll need an extension cord for most garage use. Other than that it’s a nice pump and I love the auto shutoff when set point has been reached
Disappointed that the initial one delivered had a problem but I was very impressed with the sevice which sent me a replacement with which I am verry satisfied
Excelente producto fcil de usar me encanto lo sencillo de usa
Really easy to use. Quick set up and dies the job!
By far the best I have owned. Excellent that you can use the mains or in car power. Connection to the valves is simple and positive.
This is less about this product and more about the outstanding customer support and willingness to stand behind one’s product that I received from VacLife. I order a different air pump from VacLife in October 2020, and had very good luck with it. No complaints. Then this week I went to use it again and got nothing but a loud squeal and the display only lighting up when the “-” button was pressed. I contacted Customer Service at their Gmail account and heard back almost immediately that they would help. Even though the product was purchased a full 18 months ago. They said they would refund me fully or replace the item. I was floored with the prompt and positive response from them. So I ordered the pump shown here and arrived quickly from Amazon. Again, no problems so far. They have completed the refund, not for the amount originally spent, but the FULL amount of the more expensive pump they offered as a replacement. Thanks, VacLife and Lily.
Todo perfecto como lo marca la descripcion, tiene auto paro y rango de inflado eso es muy bueno, esperemos rinde un largo tiempo
Worked on ac and dc, pumps tyres really quick. Robust build
It worked as advertised and automatically inflated my car tires once I set the correct PSI. My assumption is that it is indeed showing the right PSI as for the second car it didnt turn on since the PSI was higher than what I had set it up for. Overall happy for now, hope it continues to work.
Got for the tyres on my mobility scooter ,very easy to use ,I’m really pleased with it and would definitely recommend i
The product pumps well my kids scooters’ tyres but it is annoyingly noisy for the size. I have not tried the product on a car tyre and will update this review when i do so. Performance-wise the product performed its purpose. I will be recommending i
The AC cord is quite short, so you will only be able to reach one side of the car if you are parked up next to an outlet. However the cigarette lighter cable is long enough to reach all 4 wheels.
Feels nice and sturdy. Screen is lit and displays current + target pressure. Easy to change pressure units by clicking R. Hold R to turn on flashlight.
Aside from needing a portable compressor / air pump in general, my BMW front driver side tire began losing about 10-15psi over night when the temp would drop below roughly 35. I found myself going straight to 7-11 every morning. Miss me with that. Ordered this pump and threw it in my trunk. Now I can air it up anywhere I need in about 45 seconds. It’s small and fits in the side netted compartment in my trunk. I’ve used it several times and I love that it locks onto the tire valve tightly, and the digital display shows where you’re at (psi) vs. target (psi). It is very clear and easy to read. Doesn’t jump around or tip over when you hit start. Now it’s warmed up and my tire doesn’t lose any psi overnight. But I wouldn’t give this pump back for double the money. Soild choice. My BMW tires take 32psi. My wife’s takes 32/40. It handles both easily.
I bought a different tire inflator recently that specifically only uses the cigarette lighter as a power source. I was looking for one that could plug into the wall and came across this well-reviewed one. Some positives that I liked were it’s compact size, ease of use, and most importantly, it’s accuracy. I checked the tire pressure using a secondary hand gauge and every time it was spot on. Turning off the machine, it will remember your last reading. Downside that could be improved is the markings on the buttons (I had to fill in with a red pen?
The buttons could be so much bigger. I’m old but I’m not that old and it’s hard to see what the buttons are for. It would be SO SO nice to have a storage area for the multiple connectors that can be used for different purposes. I wish companies would ask for people to give feedback on usage ability.
Very accuracy great quality less noise, easy to use happy. Does everything what it says.
This bump very fast, and I like the digital display, very good product.
My wife and I like to keep a portable tire inflator in each car, because if we have a flat tire and can’t loosen the lug nuts to replace it with our spare, we can at least inflate it enough to get us to the nearest place where it can be fixed. We bought this product to replace an inflator we’ve only had a couple years and already stopped working. So far, this inflator has worked great, the built-in air gauge is very accurate, and we like the fact that it stops when it reaches the desired pressure. Also, it is very convenient to have an inflator that runs on AC or DC current, because when we’re at home we don’t want to have to start the car and waste gas whenever we want to adjust tire pressure! This would be an even better product if it came with a case to carry the pump and all accessories. Fortunately for us, this pump and its cords and nozzles fit perfectly in the case that came with our old inflator!
It’s good mains or 12v with auto shut off at pressure you set.
Only gave 4stars as couldn’t work out how to turn the light on as not in the instructions, tried all the buttons ec
This is not the most powerful inflator on the market, but it’s plenty for routine use, and has the benefit of an accurate inflation gauge and ability to preset inflation pressure which differentiates it from some compatitors. The ability plug into either a car battery or wall outlet is a plus. I really want to highlight their customer support, though. The tube connecting to the value developed a hole I emailed them, and they got back to me almost immediately. Once I sent them a picture of the damage, they sent me a replacement unit, which showed up in 2 days!!
This was bought primary because it can be power with AC as well as DC. Yes, it’s meant as a portable unit used for emergency, but having an AC option, this became a good general purpose air compressor to be used at home.
To test accuracy of the compressor, the tire was first manually deflated to 30 PSI. This is confirm by a old fashion tire pressure gauge (the one with the sliding ruler) and with the car’s tire monitoring system. Finally with the air compressor itself.
The target of 32 PSI is set on the air compressor. Once the targeted PSI is reached, the PSI is confirm with the tire gauge and the car’s tire monitoring system. The 32 PSI was right on the mark according to all measuring unit. To ensure this was correct, the test was repeated for two more time. Each time it was 32 PSI exactly.
This was a pleasant surprise. On other air compressor from different brand, the would usually be about 0.5 PSI higher or lower, but not exact.
This pump seems to get the job done. I have a slow leak in one of my car tires and I set the target pressure, connected it and within about 60 seconds or so, the pump added the 12 psi I needed and turned off. I had it set for 45 psi. It does get a little warm so it isn’t made to use in a tire shop or anything but it inflates things as expected. The first one delivered was missing the power cables but Amazon had a replacement to me the next day. Only reason for the 4 instead of 5 stars is the buttons aren’t easy to read and would be hard to see at night, even during the day. The light is definitely bright and is a great feature.
I bought this because my car tires were running low and I decided I’d had it with trying to find quarters and fill up my tires at the gas station in the freezing cold. This product is amazing and I should’ve bought it years ago! I can’t speak to its accuracy, but it seems to have worked exactly as intended. I filled up my tires to the ratings stated in my user manual and the pressure indicator went off and hasn’t come back on. I was able to do so in the relative comfort of my own garage on my own time, and frankly the fact that it will automatically shut off after reaching the right pressure is AMAZING. It does have a rather short AC plug cord so I needed to pair it with an extension cord to easily reach all tires using the one outlet in my garage, but that’s not necessarily a con, just a thing to note. All in all, this little machine is fantastic and I’m so glad to have it on hand.
Probable podra tener ms fuerza el compresor pero da buen uso en emergencias
I’ve had issues with the same tire 3 times and don’t have time to take my car in right now. Grabbed this tire inflator after a friend complained about spending $10 at various gas stations while on a trip, only for their inflators to fail to work. Didn’t want to chance being stuck in Chicago facing a 6-hour drive home on a tire with a busted repair job again myself. My tires were all at about 29 and this guy inflated them back to 36 no problem. I did see the reviews saying that it would be off by about 1psi so I set the target at 37, it turned off at 36.5, and I expected to lose another half psi fumbling for the cap to put back on the tires. Fired up my engine and it shows that all tires are now at 36, so my allowances were probably accurate.
I did notice that the unit got a little warm after inflating all 4, so I would probably heed others’ advice to let it rest between tires if you have to inflate them from zero. But most of the time I plan to use this for touch-up inflations only, as I did today. I didn’t find the noise to be intrusive and I inflated them in the middle of the day.
I’ll update this review if anything goes wrong with the device, although I hope I won’t need to reuse it for a while! Glad to have it in my trunk though.
I purchased 12V powered VacLife inflator last year and like it a lot. It’s not super powerful, but it’s small, easy to use and serve it’s purpose. What I like most about VacLife inflator is how easy the air chuck get on and off the valve stem. No need to over-inflate the tire to compensate for the deflation when struggling to take it off as my old AC inflator. However, I found I still need a AC powered inflator to use at home, so I decide to give this dual power unit a try.
To my surprise, it feels smaller than the 12V powered one. The sockets for DC and AC power line is clearly labeled with different shape of plugs, so it’s impossible to mess it up. I used it without reading the manual first, and found it intuitive. With 12V power, it takes 130 seconds to pump my 215/55 tire from 27 psi to 36 psi. With 110V AC power, it does it in 90 seconds. I also tried inflate a tire from 0 psi to 36 psi with AC power, and it took a little over 6 minutes. Overall, I am satisfied with its feature and versatility. I hope it has a pocket for the accessories it comes with.
Upon opening the box, I was pleasantly surprised by the colorful design of the yellow lighting stripes along the two sides of the unit, coupled with the yellow trim around the LCD displays and the yellow carry handle. The carry handle is a nice touch as not many of the smaller air pumps have this feature. The attention to the design is nice as it gives the product a quality look, which is nice if you plan to give it as a gift.
The unit can run from a 12V cigarette lighter or 110VAC socket. There is a cable included for each power option and the receiving sockets are designed to ensure that the correct cable goes to the correct socket. The Air Pump also comes complete with valve adaptors for use with inflatables.
A genuinely nice feature of the Air Pump is the powerful built-in light. The light illuminates the work area very well in dark places.
Once the air hose is connected to the tire, the integrated LCD screen shows the current tire pressure. All that is required to remedy an underinflated tire is to select the required pressure, then press the Start button. Once the tire has reached the required pressure, the Air Pump automatically switches-off. The unit remained stable throughout the entire inflation process due to the quality rubber feet on the bottom of the unit.
The pump is a little noisy but that is to be expected from a powerful Air Pump. Overall, I am very pleased with the pump and I have no hesitation to rate it at 5 stars.
