Flextail Zero Pump - Is it a Zero or a hero?!

Hello lovely people!!!
Man - this review was really tough to film - almost feels like it wasn't meant to be! 😂🤣😂
This took three attempts to film on two separate camps with things keep going wrong, some my fault, some not.
I will let the video speak for itself - if you would like to check this pump out then please find my affiliate link below. I have been honest in this video about my thoughts and please find the techy specky info below too. 😃

The pump is currently on offer for £30 and this is what they have to say about their product:
Weight - 1.02oz / 33g (this is without the battery, nozzle or lanyard)
Size - 75mm x 26mm
Inflating/deflating pressure - 2.5 kPa
Inflation flow - 18OL/MIN
Battery type - Rechargeable RCR123A / Non re-chargeable - CR123A
Anti-drop wear resistant
Low noise.
Please bear in mind you will need to separately purchase a means of recharging the battery. I bought one of E-Bay but I will let you do your own research as to what suits your budget.
Thank you for watching!!
Lots of love
Karen

Tent looks so chill inside it - can see some cute fairy lights in this one

Ahhh in the bell tent? Yes I love that tent! Thank you for watching!! 🥰

I love your personality, you are so cute! Thanks or the review and all the entertaining commentary, humor, and real-life scenarios you kept in the video, makes it all so much relatable.

[@ksgonewild]

Ahhh thank you so much!!! Was worried it looks a bit crap but hey, everyone knows my gear reviews are Uber amazing 😂🤣😂🤣 Thank you for watching!! 🥰🥰

Of all the times where someone would have had a Karen moment and complained bitterly, you persevered with an excellent sense of humour 😂 I don't think I'll ever use the term "A Karen" in a negative sense again, now, to me, being a Karen means being a good natured funny chick!

I’m still using my first gen tiny pump with a lantern. Thanks for the review Karen. 😊

[@ksgonewild]

Me too lovely, me too lol!!!! I hope you’re keeping well! Xxx

[@benhikescamps]

I couldn’t bear it when I tested my Zero Pump Karen. Ended up giving up and switching to the Tiny Pump. The general release ones are I gather coming with USB C. Nice honest review. 👍👍👍

[@ksgonewild]

Ahhh thanks Ben, I will always be honest but try to say it nicely! 😂🤣 I’ve actually given them some feedback so I’m really hoping they may take notice as this could be brilliant! Thank you for watching lovely! I did watch your video the other day to see your thoughts of it too, always interesting to see other people’s reviews 🥰

[@SussexOutdoors]

Well.. Making shapes in the tent... Good on ya! 🤣 🤣 Honestly though, I have the same Flextail tiny pump X as you (the original)... And after seeing this review, and the crap you've gone through to get to the end, I think I'll be staying with why I've got! Bit shocked you need an external charger with the minutarisation of charging circuits these days! Either way, another brilliant video, and look forward to the next one! (and seeing you at the community camp next year! 🙏💚

[@ksgonewild]

Haha very wise lovely! 😂🤣 Thank you so much for watching! You should watch my camp with Oscar as you get a little mention 🥰🥰🥰

[@SussexOutdoors]

@@ksgonewild I'll give that one a watch shortly then! Thank you! 🙏💚

[@TripoutUK]

3rd times a charm 😂 I’m going to stick with my tiny pump as I use the lantern but I’m sure if it ever breaks I’d get the zero. Another great video

[@ksgonewild]

Thanks lovely!!! I still love my Tiny Pump for the dual use. Thank you for watching lovely! 🥰🥰

[@steadyasshesews]

Hi Karen, I'm not currently in the market for a pump (🤭), but well worth watching for your killer inflation interlude dance improv! 😂 Thanks for a great vid!

[@ksgonewild]

Haha thank you so much!!!! And thank you so much for joining my livestream I really appreciate it! 🥰

[@steadyasshesews]

@@ksgonewild your livestream was such a giggle, looking forward to joining another one! 🍻

[@minerwilly]

When I first saw it on screen I was immediately tempted to get one, but for the sake of a simple, tiny circuit that would allow the battery to charge in situ it's just not good enough for me. I've got too many different chargers for different things lying around as it is. I definitely don't need another one ;)

[@ksgonewild]

Yep, can completely understand that lovely! I think the 2nd generation will be more appealing I reckon! Thank you for watching lovely! 🥰

[@gberish602]

Hi Karen, It was a bit hero to zero and back again, but I think you managed to make it a balanced review. Sounds like the folks at Flextail need to make a few tweaks, unbelievable that you have to remove the lanyard to fit the attachment, or is the attachment flexible enough to fit over it without the air seeping out? I guess if size is all important then you’d probably be prepared to always start with a new battery and to have a spare. Cheers Graham

[@ksgonewild]

Yes the attachment actually worked ok over the lanyard, I should have said that sorry. I guess its easy enough to recharge the battery before each camp to make sure, just if it’s cold we all know batteries can die so would be a bit of a concern. They’ve actually thanked me for my feedback which is really good. Thank you for watching xx

Ahhhh heyyy!!! Bless her, my lovely friend Claire! 🥰🥰 Thank you for heading over, hopefully you’ll enjoy my content! 😍

[@BourneOutside]

This is why I haven’t purchased a Flextail pump. The noise. If I was to buy, it would be one with a light and the ability to charge it without buying another charger. I have seen a couple of videos showing fails but, is that due to the unit being a demo model 🤷

[@ksgonewild]

Not sure and I guess we never will? The Tiny pump is just brilliant but yes the noise does disturb the peace! Thank you for watching my little muddled vid 😂🤣 sometimes if just feels things aren’t meant to be! 😂

[@BourneOutside]

@@ksgonewild Hahaha, yes I understand your last sentence very well. Still debating getting a pump despite the noise. But some of the places I go on my own need some quiet or I’d be found 😁 Have a good week, Karen. Timotei 👋🏼😉👍🏼

Still watching the ads at the start but i know "Flextail Zero Pump - Who doesnt need a good pump?" was only narrowly rejected as Vid title,, Cheers ATB ;)

[@ksgonewild]

😂🤣😂🤣 damn it I missed that one! I’ll call you next time I’m struggling 😂🤣

[@NoviceWildCamper]

Still pointless is my eyes. Got to bring a lantern as well so may as use the tiny x 2 🤷🏼‍♂️

[@ksgonewild]

Yes I agree. I’ve given them some ideas and feedback. 🥰

[@NoviceWildCamper]

@ksgonewild me too. Hence the change to a usbc charged unit now. Even with it I don't think it will replace the tiny x 2. Just pointless in my eyes 🤷🏼‍♂️

Don’t forget about using all these Flextail pumps (irrespective of size) as fire bellows to get your fire embers going like the great fire of London in no time 🏕️🔥😍👍❗️

[@ksgonewild]

Oh yes I always forget about that! Thanks lovely!!! 🥰 I hope you’re having a lovely weekend xx

[@whatsnottohike]

I've seen these reviewed but in all honesty, I think it's a case of if it not broken don't fix it. The original minipump has a light and is rechargeable yet this one has no light and isn't rechargeable. Not for me I'm afraid. Having said that, I just use my thermarest bag to inflate my mat 🙂 keep it pink 🩷

[@ksgonewild]

Exactly Martin!!! I love my mini pump it’s just awesome! Thank you for watching anyway, at least a bag can’t run out of power! 😂🤣😂

[@outdoor-suedost]

Hi Karen! Great review, thanks for sharing🙏 ! I think I will stay with my tiny one because we got good friends and why change when it works? All the best from Austria 🇦🇹🤠👍🏕️🔥
