I'm not a fan of portable inflators without tanks. Compressing air causes moisture to condense and you can pump extra water into your tires - I've seen this happen. This is why the big compressors all have a drain/relief valve on the bottom of the tank. We carry a small(ish) compressor with a tank (Husky brand, I think). Main disadvantage is that it is 110 volt only... but we'll call roadside assistance for any issues with the fiver or DRW truck while travelling, anyway. I use the compressor to check and adjust pressures the evening before we hit the road each time - the morning of so tires are cold if we've traveled the previous day, too.
