Anyone use a mobile tire inflator?
Anyone own / use one of these (by any company)? I honestly didn't know they even existed until today (I've been thinking about buying an air compressor). Just curious if they work as advertised.

Haven't used one but be careful.... comments there say that it doesn't come with a battery or charger... a $60 "accessory".

I have several Ryoby tools, but would likely pass on the compressor. The weight of the battery alone much less the compressor take up more space. I've used Master Flow Brand pumps for many a year, and have known about them for a few more years. I had to try the small cheapies, but they all vibrated to pieces in my saddlebag. Live and learn I say.

They're priced accordingly to the size you need or desire. I have an MF-1035 12V for my scoot and the MF-1050 12V for my truck. the 1050 will pump up my 35X12.50X15 Goodyear in under two minutes. They are also rebuildable. Pep boys carries most of their line of compresors. Or order from this website. They come with a Three year warranty. It's understood Pep Boys will swap out a bad one on site with proof of purchase.
I hope this helps you and so many others here on HDF

That would be huge to carry on a motorcycle. You might consider one of the tiny ones that can hook up to a Lithium jumper battery or plug into your battery tender pigtail, though it would need an extension cord for that, and those don't cost much. They can take a while to air up a tire from flat, though.
This is one made by Anti Gravity for their jumper batteries, but would work off some of the other brands, too. Not a bad idea to carry one of these tiny batteries, too, next best thing to a kick starter.

Thanks guys.
I have a Ryobi lithium charger and have two 18v lithium batteries, so it doesn't bother me that their pump doesn't come with one.
I don't have any bags on my bike, so this is something that would just stay at home. I just thought that this would be a good space saving / $$$ saving option than a full on air compressor.
But you have given me some nice options. I'll do some more legwork on this.

I'm not sure this is the right forum for this subject, perhaps the general BS forum is where this should be.
That being said, it's $20, why not just buy it and try it.
Anyone who has used Ryobi tools knows that they work well.
BTW- below is my power tool board;
