Great Inflator September 8, 2010 Phil McGill I purchased this inflator to use in my side by side UTV. This thing works great. Much better than those cheap smaller units that take 5-6 minutes to inflate 1 lb.
I have not used it on my truck, but it inflates my UTV tires in a minute or less.
Works great September 3, 2010 AlStCroix I got tired of trying to find a workable gas station air pump to top off the 16-inch tires on my pickup, and 17-inch tires on my Accord. The Slime worked right out of the box: plug it into the cigaratte lighter, screw the air hose onto the tire; fire up the car engine and turn it on -- way, way better than going to a gas station. I use it only for my two vehicles, and I've been using it regularly, about two years now. It's sturdy but, once, I had to retighten the cigarette lighter plug end. I store the whole thing in a small cardboard box under the back seat of my F150 (I don't use the case, it's a bit snug). Overall, this product has improved my auto care life.
Awesome pump! Works great! Solid build! August 6, 2010 J. Brooks (Norfolk, VA) I bought one a bit ago and was worried that I wouldn't be able to use it without the battery adapter because of the potential 15A current draw. I took a chance figuring that unless the pump motor was working real hard it wouldn't get up to 15A. My cigarette lighter only provides 10A. This worked fine with just the cigarette lighter for up to 35PSI on both of my cars.
The pump didn't have any issues overheating, was quiet compared to other pumps I've had, and didn't move around much. The case was a nice bonus. I don't even need the extension hose to reach all of my tires, but it stores in the case out of the way in its own compartment so it's there if I ever do need it. The gauge is fairly accurate, though I lose a little bit of pressure just from disengaging the hose from the tire.
Overall, A+++++
Had to return August 3, 2010 V. Borg (Soquel, CA) Worked on the first tire and then it died. Replaced the fuse but kept popping so I had to return it. Going to try a different model
It's Not Just Hot Air August 2, 2010 Tracybjazz (Nowheresville, MI USA) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I just purchased this machine. It is a great value (features and price). I mostly got it for topping off car tires and it easily does that in a minute or two. The carrying handle is very nice (to prevent touching any hot surfaces). My gauge is off by 5 psi but I knew that might be a problem when I purchased it. So get a high quality digital gauge - you need one anyway. The power cord and the compressor cord are plenty long - I was easily able to reach all 4 tires from one power outlet. My only complaint is I'd like to have a quick connect on the hose (instead of screwing the connection to the tire nipple). But other than that, it's compact, quick, sturdy and fits (snugly) in a nice case that stores away nicely. And who wouldn't want a case that says "Slime" in their trunk? ;-)
