Overview
This is a 12V DC compressor that plugs into a vehicle's cigarette lighter socket to inflate tires, drawing 10 to 15 amps at 120 to 180 watts. A digital gauge reads out in PSI, KPA, BAR, or KG/CM so you can match whatever units your tire's sidewall lists.
It is built for cars, bikes, sedans, and midsize SUVs with engines under 3.5 liters, and the maker is explicit that it does not support light truck or heavy duty truck tires. Extra adapters extend it to balls, inflatable kayaks, and pool accessories beyond car tires.
- 12V cigarette lighter plug, 120 to 180W
- Digital display in PSI, KPA, BAR, or KG/CM
- Auto shutoff plus overheat protection
- Not for light truck or heavy duty tires
Who it's for
Drivers of passenger cars, sedans, and smaller SUVs who want a glovebox-ready inflator for slow leaks or seasonal top-ups. Truck owners should skip it, since the maker states it is not built for LT or heavy duty tires.
Strengths and trade-offs
Drawn from this product's published specifications.
- Auto shutoff at the target pressure you set
- Four selectable pressure display units
- Adapters included for balls and inflatables, not just tires
- Built-in flashlight for low-light use
- Not rated for light truck or heavy duty tires
- Limited to vehicles with engines under 3.5 liters
- Runs off the cigarette lighter, not a wall outlet
Performance notes
The auto shutoff stops inflation once the set pressure is reached, and a separate overheat cutoff protects the motor if it is run too long or overloaded. A built-in LED flashlight is included for checking tires or reading the gauge in the dark.
