Help me decide on a 110 volt tire inflator

looking for an efficient, quiet, and reasonable cost ($50.00) or less 110 volt tire inflator.

I forgot to mention, I prefer one that does not dance all over the floor when cycling.

  • Kobalt model KLDP1 combination unit from Lowes. $50 works on both 110 ac and 12 volt dc and has digital pressure gauge built in.
  • What pressures are we talking about? "E" rated at 80 psi, "G" rated at 110 psi, or something else? Makes a big difference on what you buy. A compressor rated to 110 psi will take a very long time, if ever, to get your tires to 110 psi. And you won't find a quiet compressor at your price point.

    I have a 150 psi Porter Cable that I'm pleased with, but it was neither quiet or $50.

    I must be missing something.......

    I haven’t had to add any air to my 12 motorhome tires, 6 on my C Class, and 6 on my Class A in years.

    Do many people pick up nails or screws in their tires?

    Am I just lucky?
  • You are asking too much, for the price you want to pay. I bought a more quiet than most, lighter than most (32 lbs), very nice 6 gal pancake compressor, with quality gauges and fittings. No, it does not move when running. You'll need to add another $100 to the $50 though. Most times, you get what you pay for.

  • Porter Cable pancake compressor. Less than a hundred dollars. More than your 50, but worth way more than what you will get for 50 bucks
