Yet Another Tire Inflator Thread
Ok, it’s been at least, what, a few months anyway. This is my go-to carryon tire inflator, and just happened to run into a video on it.

Nice review, +1 on that compressor! for a 12v portable, I don't see anything out there that comes close.
I had bought the same one -- 4 actually, for each car. those little units are great.
Pair that with a tire repair kit and a can of fix-a-flat, and I don't feel *too* uncomfortable riding without a spare.
Nice ZJ by the way -- I had a '98 5.9 zj for a while as my daily, loved that truck :-) Been offroading in an '88 xj, not a ton left on that truck that's original.

I don't. I would only use that if I was stranded and had no other options and the tire reapir kit for some reason wasn't holding. Absolute last line of defense.
IIRC, chevy actually used to ship the z06 with a can of fix-a-flat and a small compressor.
