Overview
The Craftsman CMXPTXA1202 is a corded 12 volt DC air tool weighing about 1.13 kilograms, sized for portable inflation tasks rather than shop air compression. It plugs into a 12 volt source, which points to vehicle outlet use.
A 12 volt DC power source paired with a corded design and light weight strongly suggests this is a portable inflator meant to run off a car or truck outlet, not a standalone air compressor with its own motor housing and tank. It has drawn 1,000 units bought in the past month, a sign of steady demand for this listing. No pressure rating, hose length, or gauge type is given in the available specs.

- Corded electric connection
- 1.13 kilogram weight
- Craftsman branded
Who it's for
Suits drivers who want a compact inflator to keep in the vehicle for tires or inflatables, plugging straight into a 12 volt outlet. Not the choice for a home garage that needs a standalone compressor with its own power cord for a wall outlet.
Strengths and trade-offs
Drawn from this product's published specifications.
- Light at about 1.13 kilograms
- 12 volt DC power fits vehicle outlets
- Corded design needs no battery charging
- No pressure rating listed
- Requires a 12 volt power source
- No hose length specified
Performance notes
Running on 12 volts DC through a corded connection ties this tool to a vehicle or 12 volt power source rather than a wall outlet, and the 1.13 kilogram weight keeps it easy to store in a car. No pressure gauge or PSI rating appears in the spec sheet, so output pressure is not confirmed here.
