I paid $38 in 2016, so, about the same price now thanks to inflation.
“The seller is no longer offering vouchers.”
But thanks for the ref. I will check VIPON prior to purchases in the future. Seems that can offer some tempting deals.
Viair 85 is great, I have a $150 model 300…
its big, heavy, strong, and a pain to set up and take down.
The new inflators have built in auto shut off! I want that!
plus they come with a built in flashlight… lol
right now I have to use a pressure gauge after I use the pump, to recheck all my tires and adjust them… plus I need a flashlight to see the tire valve at night…
lets see if the new LiIon Tire Inflator is up to the task…
of putting +10 psi into 4 tires,
before it has a thermal shut down…
will be a good excuse to go back off pavement,
with less reluctance to air down… (I drop 10psi for washboard)
Thanks, Jonathan. I found that Amazon honored the free shipping, despite the discount bringing it below the free shipping threshold. Ordered, as I’d like to compare it to the other one and then decide which one to give to a family member. :sunglasses:
Same here. I’ve got a really good digital tire pressure gauge by Slime. But it’s a pain having to fill, then check with the gauge and then fill more or let out air. Hopefully these programmable types with usage modes will help save time.
This is the Slime gauge I’ve got:
The only problem is the timeout… and that you have to press two buttons simultaneously to turn it back on. Plus, no backlight (although an AAA in the mouth solves that!)
well done
good consumer… LOL
two is one…
your thread is saving me money, right?
it feels more like its costing me money…
but hey, less than the price of a FWAA… 
corona time, order online
I think in time you’ll warm up to the FWAA (no pun intended). 
QC could be a bit better. Shouldn’t have these activation problems due to excessive lubricant or machining grime on the threads. Mine was pretty much flawless. The fiddling in the beginning is worth the price of admission, though. And about rapid heating, I think we all figured that the 1400 lumens is just a pipe dream in terms of practicality. I don’t think you can do much without fins to dissipate the heat. But I don’t mind clamping down on the ceiling. The tint is well worth it! It’s gorgeous and it “feels” like it matches the copper body.
I agree, Ive warmed up to the FWAA… lol
actually, I set a low enough ceiling and low enough thermal step down, that I can hold the light comfortably, even for 10 seconds of Turbo…
I also like the LEDs, and the copper body feels luxurious to me… I keep reaching to fondle it… and play with different configurations… certainly entertaining…
Today the FWAA has earned a spot in my daypack… were going on walkabout to a hot springs…
.
Cool! Looks like a great time. How late do you stay out? Hopefully in your area there’s not a bug problem. That’s the only drawback to active flashlights in open areas at night… the bugs come to join you!
I had viair compressors (2 plumbed to a 5 gallon tank) under my old nissan and s10 running the air suspension. Never had an issue.
Right now I have one under my blazer wired to a tank. It airs up my 35’s and runs the air horns just fine. I’ve used it for some small air tools and thats pushing it.
i got one like that, but from amazon
i am sure they have many ‘brands’ [that are basically just stickers]
couple things to note about all these type pumps:
they get hot and you can;t run them more than about 20 mins ( about long enough to top off 4 regular car tires )
they use a lot of current, it is best to have the car engine running
they are portable, but run off the car battery, so they are not truly ‘wireless’
but they work ok within their limits
wle
Let us not forget the trusty old spark plug tire pump.
One of these has saved me on camping trips in years gone bye.
Tiny, cheep, and as long as the engine runs - unlimited run time.
But you need to be able to remove a spark plug and get at the hole.
Not always possible on a modern car.
All the Best,
Jeff
fwiw, the pump I ordered has an internal battery. It does not need to be used plugged into the car, nor with the engine running.
wow
i thought i;d heard of everything - but not that!
Makita made one that uses their 18V battery system.
It’s about 80$.
It’s very convenient because everybody has some Makita tool/batteries.
Unfortunately it’s plastic junk that has the same build quality as a corded 15$ air pump.
I wish they made a bettery quality tool like the Viair.
Basically Viair sucks because it lacks removable battery, and Makita sucks because it lacks Viair build quality 
oh
hm
curious how long it runs etc
because the one i have heats up pretty good, i would imagine it uses a lot of power
first impressions
really tiny, I will be amazed if it works…
there is no option to connect to a car cig lighter at all
it operates Only on its internal battery, which is presently being charged by USB for 4 hours, per instructions… inflation test maybe this weekend…
I’ll be interested to see how it works. Inflators need a lot of amps to work properl and that thing,I’d be concerned about it overheating or lasting like 10 minutes.
so far , that one has no reviews on amazon
First Impressions of the air pump in use
I dropped pressure in one tire from 35psi to 25 psi and began using the inflator to bring it up to 36psi.
The pump ran for a long time, I did not time it. The noise level was low. The tire looked like it was fully inflated, when the pump said 31psi. It was actually 39psi… iow, the pump reads 8psi low…
I then used the pump to add 2 psi to the 3 other tires. The pump stopped working a few times, probably cause it was hot. I burned my fingers on the metal part of the hose.
The buttons are absolutely terrible, I cant tell when Im pushing them, and a lot of times they dont seem to work at all.
I think this pump is handy for adding a couple psi to each tire, but I would not expect it to be capable of adding 10 psi to each of 4 tires.
I brought the pump into the house and plugged in to charge. The display said the battery was at 60% capacity. The total psi added to the tires was 16psi… to my mind, the unit would be out of battery after providing a total of 32psi…
I like the convenience of being able to add a couple psi to each of 4 tires, without having to run the car motor, and without having to run a cord from my cig lighter to the pump. I tend to change my tire pressures a few psi up or down depending on the time of year.
This unit will not replace my Viair, for those times when I am offroading, I take 10 psi out of each tire when im on dirt and rocks… But the Viair requires running the motor, and clamping direct to the battery. Not very motivating when I just want a couple psi more air, to fine tune the ride of the car on highway.
trivia, the pump comes with fittings to inflate a basketball and bicycle tire. They store in the base of the unit. However, the charging cord has no storage location… I put a rubber band around the body, to hold the charging cord.
I do not recommend the pump, for 2 reasons, the buttons are really difficult to use, and the air pressure gauge in the pump is off by 8 psi.
.
next test pump…
I ordered this pump with a Vipon coupon for $22
CODE:LNNJ-GUWJXH-4YW5AS
Im hoping the pressure gauge is more accurate, and the buttons easier to use.
I have one of those and a model 88 and a 300 as well. They all work when asked to work, but have different capabilities.
What do you need the pump to do?
Note that these pumps will all have a duty cycle and that info may not be easy to find. I need/want to be able to reliably re-inflate four 32x11.5 tires from 8 or 9 PSI to 25 PSI and don’t want to have to wait for the pump to cool in the middle of the process.
