Tire Inflator Portable Air Compressor, 180PSI Air Compressor with Digital Pressure Gauge, 3X Faster Portable Air Pump for Car, Motorcycle, Bicycle, Ball and More(Black) by KUXISA

This portable inflator impressed me from the moment I opened the box. It’s compact, but the 180 PSI motor is powerful enough to top up car tires quickly. The digital gauge is accurate, and I appreciate being able to set the desired PSI, allowing it to shut off automatically when the desired pressure is reached. The built-in battery is large and lasts for several uses before needing to be recharged. I also used it to inflate a bike tire and a basketball — both worked perfectly. Definitely a great tool to keep in the trunk for emergencies.

I recently purchased this tire inflator and I’m very satisfied with it. The build quality feels solid and reliable, and it’s very easy to use. It inflates tires quickly and accurately, with a clear pressure gauge that makes it simple to get the exact pressure I need. The design is compact and convenient to store in the car, which gives me peace of mind for long trips. Overall, a great product with excellent value for the price. Highly recommend!

This item is small, lightweight, and worked pretty much as described. Several aspects of the item could use improvement. Soon after unpacking I attempted to check its charge by connecting the charging cable that it ships with. Unfortunately, the unit uses 90W, and the supplied cable has USB-A on one end and USB-C on the other. Here were two problems right off. (1) Chargers that supply 20W of power almost uniformly use USB-C ports on the charger itself. So what’s required is a cable that is USB-C on both ends. The remaining cables that are USB-A to USB-C are intended for low wattage appliances like small transistor radios, or small LED flashlights. (2) I have several quite a few USB-C to USB-C cables from external SSDs, and several from chargers, but none of them would seat into the USB-C socket on the compressor or make a connection. Upon closer inspection, the supplied cable has a USB-C tip that is about 1/16th of an inch longer than any of the cables that I have from Samsung, Anker, or SanDisk. It would help if the manufacturer of the compressor should supply an industry standard / compatible USB-C socket on the compressor itself AND a cable that doesn’t have a USB-A tip, but one which is intended for chargers that supply far more power. Those were the first two quirks.¶

I happened to have some adapter tips on hand that convert USB-A male to USB-C male, so I was eventually able to connect a charger to the compressor and confirm that the unit was fully charged. After setting the compressor for 32 PSI, using the compressor alone it took about 4 minutes for the compressor to fill the driver side front tire. When the compressor shut down it registered only one bar of power remaining. I brought it back inside to cool off and hooked it up to the 20W charger again to see how long it would take to charge back up. It took almost 3 hrs!

When it was fully charged I hooked it up (with the car running) using the cigarette lighter power cable. That connection filled the other front tire a bit faster, but it also heated the unit noticeably more. It started to sprinkle, and looked like it might rain heavier, so I left everything in the car to do the rear tires when conditions improved. About 45 minutes later the shower had passed and I returned, started the car, but when I tried to re-insert the tip of cigarette lighter cable tip into the compressor, the tip didn’t want to go back in. The first time I inserted it, there was no problem at all, but the second time, I had to try again and again to get the cable past the initial point where a resistance point helps retain the tip in the compressor during use. The compressor worked fine in charging the rear tires, but I still needed to let the unit cool off between tires. All four tires needed about 8 PSI added to the 24 or 25 PSI in them to bring the pressure back to optimal. Having trouble reinserting the tip of the cigarette light cable was the third quirk.¶

The final quirk was yet to come. I had noticed during unpacking that the unit shipped with a fuse; however, I read the instructions several times but could find nothing at all about the fuse. Also, there doesn’t appear to be anywhere on the compressor unit where an opening exists to replace the fuse—if the fuse is intended for the compressor unit. Also, most fuses are labeled with the appropriate amperage rating, but the fuse included has no markings whatsoever to identify it. This is also something that the manufacturer could address in the instructions. It is thoughtful to supply a spare fuse, but it would be far better to know how it can be used.¶

The unit has a nice clear display; it does make a bit of noise during operation, but nothing excessive. With a little tweaking by the manufacturer, this unit can be improved. It would also be convenient if the light was on a separate circuit, so that the entire unit doesn’t need to be switched on (and illuminate the face of the unit) just to use the light. The output USB port is also a USB-A port. How many phones can still be charged via a USB-A port?

This tire inflator is so easy to use and works great.

Awesome sauce! All 4 of my tires were around 28psi …filled all 4 to 33psi in 5 minutes! Great product! Negative reviews involved the little light in which I could give 2 skats about … Just hope it lasts 🙏
