Electric Tyre Inflator

Don't like me be tempted by the one they sell in Morrisons petrol stations for about £8. There was smoke pouring out of it after inflating 2 tyres from about 27 to 32 psi!!

And the gauge on it is useless

probably the same as the tesco one then. Cant use it for more than 5minutes at a time, and it probably took 10minutes doing two tyres?
 
If you have one of the totally useless little tesco style ones, pull the tiny piston pump out - add a r/c car battery , then affix to a supersoaker for awesome high powered lazy water pistol fun. More use that way than in pump form.

I have had a Michelin hi power rapid tyre inflator (12262) for several years. It's Been excellent. I recently got myself a race x professional tyre gauge and I was surprised as to how accurate the Michelin is (within about 2 psi).

Also the O-ring in the valve connector wore out and they sent me a new one free next day :) good customer service!
