*Great air pump **MyBest.Tools** Faster than my old plug in pump and twice as handy without having to drag the cord around.And it works with my existing Ryobi drills battery.*

[@user-tv8sm6so9y]

This was a great Test, read it a couple of times and it is well worth the read.

[@stephenh7965]

So I went and read the article which actually gave me the info i needed and as I think working temps also say alot about life span I am going to go with a Dr Air Pro. Its cheap fast and doesn't run hot. I have had the ARB twin and sure its great but no inline gauge is painful and a big negative.

[@billsmith5166]

Thanks!

[@gavmansworkshop5624]

This video definitely wasn't sponsored by ARB at all lol those ARB pumps are notorious for throwing rods before anyone actually goes there I'll certainly never do that to myself again.

[@jaytrock3217]

Where is the data sheet?

[@Veikra]

Wheres the results ! There's nothing wrong with sponsors, just have to stipulate it and then do a real test and show in results that its the best.

[@gualberto921]

An awesome product

[@user-tv8sm6so9y]

The nicest Unit to use is the ARB High Output Single Compressor when used with the ARB Blue Inflating Tool, It is like using the best money can buy, All the others are slapped together and have some serious short comings with build quality, Yes ARB cost more but you can buy spares for them World Wide, buy the cheap multi branded models and you will never get parts for them, IE Masterflow MF-1050/Viair MV-50 and the smittybilt 2781 and a whole heap more. and the build quality of the ARB's is first class.

[@leokal1237]

ARB single seems to be the best deal. well build..price is okay and its fast with a nice case.

[@cptmud]

woud be nice to have an unbias comparison, but i dont think any of the compainies would supply compressors to do this unless they got someting out of it.

[@davvvvvo]

Haha advertising paid for this video... Was looking forward to this channel being informative. Another let down.

[@DENMONKEY]

Agreed. ARB, if not, any of the others are good. Great conclusion guys.

[@rollyb5061]

I have the ARB single cylinder pump, love it

[@HammerRocks]

So outside the ARB Twin Compressor model, which was the best in all the categories you listed prior to the test?

[@velazquezjaime149]

Nothing better than a good co2 tank

[@sportsandautomotives4739]

my air compressure working . but 1hour use before full heat(heat) pipe & motar full heat. no hard work. only emergency 1hour using.(it itam).

[@crevusllohcin]

No Ozita around when this was made.

[@jeanpaullgarcia5268]

yes the best youtube channel on earth

[@steinwaygrande3971]

I now read the comments before wasting my time on crap video clips that say nothing. No need the watch the vid. Comments said it all.

[@Mc007Queen]

Do I see on the driver's front wheel there's two wheels on one side am I imagining this?

[@jaymanxxxx]

this advert. was brought to you by ARB.

[@jaymanxxxx]

Vitair is top in north America.

[@vaughnburrows]

jaymanxxxx Actually Xtreme Air Magnum is top in North America

[@adamgardner3575]

My mean mother compressor has just stopped pumping air and has not had a lot of work for the money I’d expect better life.

[@scottyguerin9504]

What a complete waste of 5 minutes! Audio was crap and no results of the tests!! What a complete misleading and false title for this video!! Shame shame shame!!!

[@user-tv8sm6so9y]

Click on the links below the video and you will see the full review.

[@no_handle_required]

Quit yer bitching, it's free.

[@dixy2k]

I love watching commercials. Even the bad ones.

[@joeb334]

WHERE ARE THE TEST RESULTS?

[@Ghryst]

"a yuppies guide to pumping up tyres"

[@codymoncrief2128]

get/ fabricate a York ac conpressor conversion and you'll be much happier and you wallet less thinned

[@arefeshghi]

How much would it cost if you don't do it yourself? And is it reliable?

[@user-tv8sm6so9y]

The Cost of buying a york compressor is through the roof by time you have bought all the brackets and belts and fittings not to mention having to deal with the oil/servicing etc.

[@NoLimitRaceCrew]

www.whichcar.com.au/gear/electronics-gadgets/12-volt-air-compressor-comparison Link to the results :)

[@DiHandley]

Where are the results???? 😡

[@Steve_MFr]

Did the thought never occur that at least 3 of these (if not more) came from the same Chinese factory?

[@tomanycooks]

FAIL

[@TheLexiconDevils]

Use a foot pump ya Toyota fairy

[@primeengineering31]

[@jesusmartinez-dy1ue]

Too noise compressors

[@terrygoyan3022]

What a waste of time!

[@alexfraser7199]

wtf was thar??

[@free4free68]

ARB advertisement

[@robs_outdoors7478]

pffffffffft what a let down.

[@magicmanspaz]

What a waste of time. This video explains nothing.

[@normanmazlin6741]

This is just a sales pitch with NO real information

[@cajungangster1654]

Sellout

[@blahhblahh1511]

Cross Sherpa big air off your list. Don't buy anything Sherpa! Absolute amateurs to deal with. Our new bigair pump melted the hose inflating the second tire to 50 psi. Company won't offer warrant claim.

[@narssasisticasshole3255]

So the actual tire on the car. All will work easier when it doesn't have a load. How dumb . Dumb test

[@hiroki947]

waste of time

[@bizzlefizzlejam]

What a flipping waste of time. Should have trusted the high number of thumbs down.
