Perhaps you could post some specs ?? And if you're really feeling productive the price. Yes, I'm too lazy to look it up.
Maybe compare it to the Hong Kong Freight model;

$34.99 100PSI high volume

I bought a similar one from Amazon. Can't beat $35, I hate dragging out the massive air compressor just to fill tires. Plus it has an auto shut-off feature so I just set it and forget it for each tire.

$40 And it's also 110 volt so it works faster in your driveway on your trailer tires, lawn tractor etc. I wouldnt say it's fast on a 285 going from 20lbs to 35lbs. Probably 10min.

All looks fine for emergency roadside type stuff...
This is a solid budget pump that should be considered.

This or another higher air-flow pump is Really what we need at the end of the day after airing down. I can't stand taking 30-45 mins to air up 4 large volume tires, ugggg!
So compare the airflow ratings before you buy, if they don't list it, you know its low flow, it'll get to 150psi eventually. :cowboy:

That sucker runs at 20 amps though, I'm not sure the cig lighter circuit could handle it, I think it has a 15 amp fuse.

Yeah I saw that too (20amp draw) but it has gator clips so it connects directly to the battery. Cord and hose are 26' combined, should be enough to reach even the spare. Plus not many items on amazon get a combined 4/5 star rating of 94%! :cowboy:

I have a Slime Heavy duty tire inflators that I keep in my truck. It works awesome and can fill a tire from dead flat pretty damn quick.

I have this one, it is noticeably faster then any cigarette lighter powered one I have owned or used, and would recommend it to others. I keep it in a "hong Kong freight" soft tool bag I got for four dollars, with some related accessories.

I bought that pump just to have around for road side stuff and to move between cars, but for the trail, I have a Viair 400P that use for air up. The air volume / speed is dramatically improved.
I almost went with a 450 @ 100% duty cycle but the 400 was a higher volume pump, capable of inflating all 4 tires before the duty cycle limit so I didn't really see the point in caring about duty cycle, and in favor of higher speed fill.

I got this, it’s for my F250 that has 35s on it, but I burnt out my cheap one trying to air it up after I got a nail in the tire. I had a plug kit but that poor little compressor couldn’t keep up.. it was literally smoking and died a painful death.. this one is not cheap but like my buddy says.. “it only cost a little more to go first class”.
