The kit is quite expensive, although a very fast charger accompanies the 3Ah battery, which still showed its full array of four LEDs when we finished.

Halfords claims that the inflator can pump an R13 tyre (13 inches in diameter) from flat to 30psi in three minutes, thanks to a flow rate of between 28 and 30 litres per minute. Not so impressive are the short (15cm) screw-in hose and the performance: disappointing on the 15-inch tyre and slowest on the space-saver.From everyone’s favourite tyre maker/world renowned reviewer of restaurants is this, the Michelin Programmable Superfast 4x4/SUV Tyre Inflator, and you can tell from the get-go that it means business — it looks less than a tyre inflator than it does something from Star Trek. It operates on a rechargeable battery and comes with 12V cable adaptor and 11 inch long car adapter.

With a maximum pressure of 130PSI (that’s 9 bar), you’ll be able to deal with some much more heavy duty wheels. It’s a bit pricier than the P6 above, but that’s to be expected as you’re getting a good rechargeable battery included with the P2 air pump. Oasser offers you a range of air pump products P1S/P1/P2/P6/ air compressors, and we hope that you can purchase the one that meets your needs.Elsewhere, and for ultimate practicality, the Oasser tyre inflator is so small it can fit in a backpack. When you’ve reached the desired pressure it cuts power straight away, so you needn’t worry about over-inflation.
