AAA 300 PSI 12 Volt DC Air Compressor customer reviews:
|
simply good enough      i have read all the reviews of this type of product and i'm sure glad i didn't go over budget with this one. this thing is noisy for sure but not deafening if you are outdoor. it is slow compared to the station pump but it did a large SUV tire in ten minutes.....not bad i say. the pressure guage is accurate enough when i compared it to the pocket devices. but it is so light, small, easy to use and affordable that you have to accept a few short comings. overall it does the intended job simply good enough for me and i would expect most people to be satisfied also. my one concern with it is that there is no safety blow off system so my wife must pay attention for the ten minutes watching that pressure guage. then again, it is made for adults.
Not that great      I tried using this product to fill up an inflatable pool and after 15 minutes, decided to blow up the pool myself instead. I don't know what the product claims are, but I suspect it may be better used for topping off tires or other objects that require high PSI, but not a lot of volume. It comes with adapters that suggest you could use it on inflatables, but simply takes too long.
Patience Required      With gas stations charging for air I opted to by this device to maintain tire pressure and fuel economy. If you buy this gadget be patient with it. Trying to pump an auto tire from 31 to 35 psi takes about five minutes. This would not be bad except that you are not supposed to run the device for more than 15 minutes at a time or you can damage it. I am lucky to have an indoor garage to work in. I can imagine what it might be like to try to use this outdoors in the winter. It does what it claims to do, but is very slow to do it.
It works well.      This product does what it says it does. I use it to inflate bicycle tires, pool toys, vehicle tires, etc... It is a good product. You won't be disappointed.
Loud and Slow      The AAA air pump is slow, loud, and shakey. Also, the guage is inaccurate. Otherwise it does its job, which in my case has been topping off car tire pressure as the weather has been getting colder.
This would not be a good pump to fully inflate four tires, because it would overheat long before that.
