Default Tire inflators.....

My rechargeable Goodyear tire inflator took a shyt the other day and I've been checking out 120v models like the Husky HY120 Inflator or the Goodyear i8000 Inflator. They both have 4 star reviews but the Husky is about half the price. What are you guys using?

I have one of these...nice because you dial in the pressure and it shuts off.
Great to use on the auto when its cold and i dont want to stand and monator it.
I have one smaller unit for my saddlebag but it doesnt auto shut-off.

Thanks guys, I had a 12v one before and it was a PITA to always have to find a cigarette lighter to plug into. I ended up ordering the Husky 120v from Home Depot for $30 shipped. I have many outlets in the garage to plug into.

I got a Harley one as a gift and it just plugs in to battery tender pigtail and it also comes with an extension hose.

I thought about one with the pigtail, but I also use these inflators on the car and truck. With a long extension cord I can add air to both bikes and both cars all at once without killing a battery or moving from one cigarette lighter to another.

I have a large air compressor in the shop, but carry one similar to this one in my side arm saddle bag. It's small, compact, and I also use it to inflate my airmattress when camping. I have a pigtail cig lighter adapter that works well for this and my cell phone charger. I also carry plugs and a tool so if it's a hole, I can at least try to plug it and limp it to the next city.
