AAA Digital Preset Air Inflator DC 12V with Pressure Gauge

I just received the AAA 12v Tire Air Inflator, and had a chance to use it on my son's vehicle right away. First off, it's a small compact piece of equipment that will take up very little room in your vehicle. Second, easy plug in for your 12v outlet, with plenty of cord to reach all four tires. The air hose connector is a solid material with a snug fit on your tire valve. The pressure gauge is easy to read, and over all, the AAA Tire Air Inflator is inexpensive, compact, and works. I'll be getting them for my kids vehicles next.

I've owned several air inflators over the years with mixed results, but I like the AAA digital model the best of any. Best features: (1) Compact size (2) Inflates quickly (3) Digital preset; works great and takes the guess work out of tire inflation. (4) Nice, long power cord (5) Bright LED light on the side (6)Quick release nozzle on air hose. In summary, compact, easy to use, efficient and easy to store. Would recommend.

Just what I was looking for. Air connector securely clamps-on. 12v cord is long. Lights for safety and easy night use when plugged in. Displays air pressure once connected. Digital meter has 1/2 pound precision. Auto cut-off when desired pressure is reached. Took about 30 seconds for 29 pound tires to inflate to 33 lbs. Cords tuck-into case for storage very nicely.

Compared to my very good old one from Sears it has a nice digital feature which allows you to set the PSI to a specific number and it will stop at that number. Its accuracy was verified by my manual tire pressure gauge.

Very easy to set your desired tire pressure and it pumps it to that setting. Great value for this unit. Ive bought three of them. One in each car for any possible road side emergency. I highly recommend.

just wanted to give some info on this lil guy since it was a inexpensive lil guy it, it actually feels very solid and heavy compared to others , not light and wimpy , the motor pulls strong it still does take 7-8 minutes to fill a full size tires from flat but feels like a machine that would last a few times more then the rest doing it , but time will tell .

As I said in the title, this does take some time to fully inflate but most likely you are just using this to top off your tires like I am. You use the controls to set the desired pressure, attach the hose to the tire and switch it on. It automatically inflates to the pressure you chose and seems to be pretty accurate. My TPM had done off and I used this to check and properly inflate all four tires. After a reset, the meter stayed off and I did not have to get out my large compressor to fix it. As my tires are usually within 1-2 psi of their needed range, this did not take long at all. I will definitely keep this in my trunk for emergencies and road trips. It also has a light in case you need to use this in the dark, which could be helpful especially on the side of the road.

For the low price it seems to work good so far :)

Really convient to use. Don't have to find a gas station that may or may not have a working compressor. Doesn't take up alot of room. Pressure gauge built in.

I got this 12V compressor to add to my "go bag" that I carry which has a couple tire gauges, self vulcanizing tire plug kit, breaker bar, foot pump, and a couple other items. One big thing that is missing from the item description, even in the documentation, is the power cable length and hose length. The power cable is 10' and the hose is 20". So, be sure that it will reach your tires. For me it was a little bit of a disappointment because I'd hoped to be able to use it if needing to air up my boat trailer tires in an emergency but it would not reach the left side tires which are furthest from the 12V plug on the helm. I use an air compressor for normal airing up around the house so this unit would be very limited use for me. To test it out, I used it on my F-150 to air up a tire that was a couple of pounds lower than the rest. It was the left rear and I had to use the rear console 12V plug to reach the tire easily (supercrew). I was surprised that the gauge on the unit seemed to be pretty accurate and read the same 31 lbs as my tire gauge. The gauge goes to 300 lbs so the resolution isn't great but is acceptable for getting a tire aired up very close or a little over where you need it, and then checking with a gauge and airing down to correct pressure. Adding a couple lbs of air only took about 30 seconds, and that was on a 285/55R20 all terrain tire. I did have to do it twice because the new connector was pretty hard to pull off the valve stem when done so I lost some air. The second time I knew what to expect so I unlocked it and then quickly yanked it off with some force. The unit takes up very little space. The hose, power cord, and accessory kit tuck into a storage space on the side and stay tucked in. The documentation says it will pull up to 10A so make sure your 12V outlet will supply that by checking the fuse or labeling. I assume that 10A is the max that would come in closer to its max pressure and that normal lower pressure stuff wouldn't pull that much current. Also, a cool down period is needed after 15 minutes of continuous running which in most situations you'd probably never see. All in all, not a bad little unit.
