cordless compressor for tires

Just came across this cordless compressor for keeping your tires pumped up

https://www.consumerreports.org/tires/cordless-tire-inflators-review-cordless-air-compressors/

Has anyone tried one of these yet? Does Dewalt have one.
I think for that 3 to 5 pounds needed after being stationary for a couple weeks this seems like a good idea .. particularly if you get one to work on your existing batterys.
  • I keep a regular foot pump in the trailer. I had to use it to fill my spare once. It took about 15 minutes. The pump was hot, and both my legs were shot, but the batteries were still good. :B
  • Clicky to LINK


    I have the Ryobi one.....already have a garage full of Ryobi Tools and 3 battery chargers so it was a no brainer for $20

    Use it for my garden cart wheels, riding mower wheels, hand truck wheels but they are ALL low pressure----10 psi

    I haven't even bothered trying it on my trailer tires.
    Trailer tires 110 psi
    Tried it on truck tires when I was re-adjusting rear tire psi for towing----going from 45 psi to 80 psi
    NOPE>...got hot real quick

    Might adjust 5 psi or so but I don;t worry/adjust if only 5 psi is needed.

    BUT does handle those low pressure needs.
  • My Dad has the Ideaworks one. It did fine for running his car tires from 25 to 32 psi- all 4. The battery was dead, but it comes with a cigar lighter plug, so worked well. Not sure what the upper pressure limit is though.
