Car Forum / Driving, Maintenance, Tuning / Maintenance and Repair / December 2006110 volt Air Compressor?
Basically I'm looking for a small air compressor that I can use to fill up my tires if they get a few PSI low. The one I have now uses the car's power which is great when I'm not at home. I keep that pump in the car. But when I'm at home I don't want to use the car's battery or have the car running when I pump up the tires. Is there such an animal? What about one that does both? Uses 12v when I' on the road and 110v when I'm at home? > Basically I'm looking for a small air compressor that I can use to fill > up my tires if they get a few PSI low.

There is this one for $50: http://www.sears.com/sr/javasr/product.do?cat=Compressors+%26+Air+Tools&pid=0287 5117000&vertical=TOOL&subcat=Air+Compressors+%26+Inflators&BV_SessionID=@@@@0589 676279.1165442898@@@@&BV_EngineID=cckfaddjigkjfmdcefecemldffidfjg.0 Craftsman 120 volt Air Compressor Inflator Sears item #02875117000 Mfr. model #75117 or for a bit more ($80) a much nicer one: http://www.sears.com/sr/javasr/product.do?cat=Compressors+%26+Air+Tools&pid=0091 5239000&vertical=TOOL&subcat=Air+Compressors+%26+Inflators&BV_SessionID=@@@@0589 676279.1165442898@@@@&BV_EngineID=cckfaddjigkjfmdcefecemldffidfjg.0 Craftsman 150 psi Compact Air Compressor Sears item #00915239000 Mfr. model #15239 I'm assuming you don't have need for any of the bigger "real" air compressors. > Basically I'm looking for a small air compressor that I can use to fill > up my tires if they get a few PSI low.

I think some of the 'battery packs' or battery boosters/starters have a built-in air compressor, & they run & recharge on 110-volts at home and re-charge while driving via 12-volts from the cigarette lighter. Sears? Auto-Zone? Battery specialist sales? Also, I surely don't know how well they work, but their idea sounds neat. s > Basically I'm looking for a small air compressor that I can use to fill > up my tires if they get a few PSI low.

I just run the cheap little 12v job off my battery charger sometimes. Works fine. Someday I hope to get a good air compressor for air tools, but that has been an expense I have not chosen to take on, yet. |
