Why do shoppers love it?

Shoppers love this portable tire inflator for its fast performance, its convenient preset modes, the automatic shutoff feature, and its compact size. The screen is easy to read, it's a breeze to store and transport, and you can get it at a great price during big event sales.

"This is a great product," said one reviewer. "It delivers more pressure than most similar items, and at a third of the cost. I topped off all four of my tires and didn't lose a single bar of battery life. It's so easy to use; just set it to what psi you need, wait for it to reach the desired pressure, and it'll automatically shut up. It also tells you what pressure your tire's at when you plug into it initially. You can plug it into a 12-volt outlet, but you don't have to; charging it is easy. I've already recommended this to others."

Details to know

• Power source: Rechargeable built-in battery or 12-volt DC power cord.
• Battery capacity: Enough for roughly 12 car tires.
• Warranty?: Two-year limited warranty.

Whether you've got access to a 12-volt power outlet or need to use the built-in rechargeable battery, this portable tire inflator offers plenty of power and versatility to keep you going on the road and your tires at optimal pressure. It comes with one long inflation cable, a DC power adapter, a USB Type-C charging cable, a long nozzle, a ball needle, a Presta valve adapter, a spare 12-volt outlet fuse, and a carrying bag to store all of it in. On a full charge with the USB-C cable, the battery should have enough juice to inflate about 12 average car tires to 29 to 35 pounds per square inch (psi).

The inflator includes a two-year limited warranty to cover any defective parts, and the device itself has a host of useful features to help you stay safely rolling while you're out on the road. It has an LED display with a precision pressure sensor built right in, so you'll know how much further each tire needs to be inflated, and it'll even shut the inflator off automatically when it achieves the desired pressure for the job (a car tire, a basketball, or a bike tire). For extra convenience, it comes with four preset modes, so you don't have to memorize or Google the ideal pressure.
