Compressor

Very happy with this one. Avoid any that plug into cigarette type 12v plugs. They will eventually blow that fuse if they have any power at all

I have a Slime compressor that plugs into any cigarette lighter. They make one that needs to hook up to the battery directly.

How much air and at what pressure do you need?

I have Viair 400P-RV compressor. A little pricey but a great compressor. I've had mine for a few years now. It fills tires fairly quickly. I keep mine in my truck all the time.

I have the Slime one too because that's what Walmart had when I needed one for a bike tire. Not really much good for my truck or trailer tires. Just gets hot when you need real pressures.

Get a Viair. They’re a little pricey but they work.

I got a cheapie from Harbor Freight to use to blow out my water lines for the winter. Of course, I use the pink stuff too...

Thanks everyone. I ordered the Viair 400P-RV as I have a lot of things that need air.

Milwaukee Tool makes an M12 compressor. I don’t leave home without one. I work for MT but this is still a very nice, convenient, small, and effective product.
