12 volt air inflator
My ancient Coleman 12 volt air inflator is history. I am looking to find a good, economical 12 volt inflator for car/pup/bicycle tires and miscellaneous items requiring air, as I many times primitive camp without shore power, not sure Coleman still makes one. Any suggestions welcome!

'nother Viair fan here. We have several units that we use around the farm and on some other heavy construction vehicles. I would not be without mine. I currently have the 88P in the RV.

Here for sarcasm and lame humor...
What is an "air inflator"? Is this like a "hot water heater"?
Anytime I need my air inflated, I just ask my wife a question she thinks she knows something about. Bada- bam. <crickets>

Bought mine at Tractor supply, it's a jump starter with inflator and I think it has a USB plug too. Great for when you are disconnected.

I bought the top of the line 12 volt one at Harbor Freight, and have been happy. Got it on sale; otherwise I thought it was pricey. I keep it in the truck for truck and trailer. I still have my Coleman in the car; the car tires don't need as much pressure.

Picked one at HD, has a 6 ft 12 volt cable which I added a 12 ft extension from Amazon. Also has a 120 ac option option that requires a regular extension cord as well. Unit has digital meter that lets you set desired pressure and just turn it on. Tops off 75 pound tv tires with no problem. Think max pressure is 150. Cost was $40 at Christmas, now is $50. Put unit in bag with 12 volt extension from Har Freight. Fits under back seat of tv.

X2 on the Ryobi 18 volt from Home Depot. Love the set and auto shutoff. Had some other tools with same batteries so have multiple now. For $40 was a pretty good deal and any active or ex military Home Depot give 10% discount all the time.
