Default Tire Inflator on Sale...

Just saw this inflator on sale at Amazon, apply code D9F6IFVD to bring price down to $9.99:

Amazon Amazon

At 4.3 x 3.7 x 1.7 inches, it's small enough to fit in my vert's trunk storage cubby hole...

Looks like a lite weight unit; myself, I prefer something with a little more

Just remember, you get what you pay for.

No experience with this unit, except the poor reviews, but...
If you need to inflate a tire that's gone completely flat, like overnight, it takes a long time for a small compressor to do the job and I would worry about overheating and failure.

For overnight flat, then it's in my home garage where I have a real plug-in-the-wall air compressor.

This is a $10 emergency pump when I'm on the road, at the mall, at the gym, at da bar...
when all I need is a little air to limp to the nearest Discount Tire, it's an alternative to resorting to using the can of Slime also in my cubby hole.

Anyways, I bought 3, for both my wife & daughter's car also.

Guys, it's $10 !!! No tax. Free shipping with Prime.
Rated 4.1 stars, no need to flame me in support of the 12% who rated it 1 star...

Wondering if you followed the instructions to turn the pump on before you screwed the hose to the tire valve stem?

I will thoroughly test mine when I receive it and if it’s junk, send it back to Mr. Beezos at Amazon.

Best one I've ever owned. Set it for the psi you want and let it go. Only issue I have with it is the plug for the 12v is sometimes hard to get in/out. Works like a charm though!
