For those that like this style air compressor

Horrible freight has put one on sale for Black Friday
Small comp
OK, now let the haters begin.

    Looks like Viair


    Yup. And the non sale price is actually fairly close to Viair price.
    That one is slightly less cfm than the viair I bought this year for about $75. Seems comparable. Maybe even the same with a different label? Maybe a knockoff.
  • I almost bought that one. But since thw new truck has a inverter and 110 outlet. I went with a small plug in 3 gal pancake compressor. Only good for 100 psi, but works well and fast.

  • The above dewalt inflator is a real game changer. Its self contained no need to plug in or connect to battery. I am able to inflate my 5th wheel tires wqithout being tied to an extension cord or battery.
    It is able to inflate my 110 PSI Sailun G rated tires.
    Yes more expensive than the El Cheapo models but it is also more capable. I own this model and can verify it works well.


    DEWALT DCC020IB 20-Volt MAX Corded/Cordless Air Inflator can run on any 1 of 3 power sources for maximum versatility: 20-Volt maximum battery, 12-Volt DC or 110-Volt AC.

    Have had similar for 15+ years. Re-tapped the outlet to use a standard hose and chuck. As long as it has battery terminal clamps it is probably decent.


    I see you figured it out also, the screw on attachment is a royal pain. A dually makes it even worse.
  • :) Hi, I bought one of those Harbor Freight compressors many years ago. If you run it without being attached to a tire valve, it will blow up. Well at least mine did. I took it back as defective for a warrantee replacement and was hassled, but they finally gave me a new one. I installed a compressor blow off valve and never had a problem since.

    I have the same unit, different label. Used it many times and no complaints.
