Lat's talk portable air compressors/tire inflators. What do you have?

[slewfoot]

I have one I bought that looks like a hand drill 6 months ago when I got my new vehicle. Put in the back and have not seen it since. Hopefully I won't.
I purchased a tire plug kit just case. If I get a flat, it should be useful. If it's a blowout, it's not.

Thing is there are people who live the kind of life and owned the sht box vehicles that always get flats, need air or a jump start using portables.

Generally, they are call teenagers but there is never a short supply of adults

Same here, I just want something to use roadside if need be.

I had to plug a tire last Saturday night, fortunately I was close to home when I got the low pressure warning so it was a non-event.

Very true.

Perhaps I should have clarified. Don’t buy the cheap shit off of Amazon.

This. The goal is to buy a higher grade of Chinesium.
